The Epic of Gilgamesh is humanity's oldest literary masterpiece. Tablet XI contains a Flood narrative with parallels to Genesis so precise that literary dependence is certain. The discovery of this tablet in 1872 caused an intellectual earthquake. Beyond the Flood, the epic explores themes taken up in Genesis: the paradise garden, the serpent, the loss of immortality.
