Summary

Do you know that the Sumerians believed that:

The moon was actually a god child conceived unintentionally by the God Enlil and a maid?

Or that humans were first created to do the chores on earth for the Gods and Goddesses?

The ancient Sumerians lived a difficult life, and this is reflected in their myths. However, also reflected in their stories is their love for justice and the values which they most supported, among them beauty, honor, and truthfulness.

Some of the stories included are:

  • How the world, the moon, mankind and animals were created
  • The retelling of the Epic of Gilgamesh: the legend of the very first hero in history
  • Ninurta and the slaying of the demon Asag
  • The Myths of Kur: the Dragon Conqueror
  • Inanna’s journey to the underworld
  • And many other amazing tales!
