Gilgamesh Tablets I,II.III

I have to admit, Gilgamesh (the little I've read) is a very peculiar book. It begins with gods, maybe the creation of a war-like man, son of a god. It is like the creation of Adam, made out of clay. This man is powerful as Ninurta, the god of war. This takes place in some kind of city called Uruk, with its king being Gilgamesh. The hairy bodied wild man, who is Enkidu is freeing  all the gazelles from the trap pits of the grassland, so their is nothing to hunt, by the hunters who live near by. The hunter who saw him the first time, told his father, who told him to leave to Uruk to see Gilgamesh. "Go to Uruk, and there present yourself to Gilgamesh the king, who is the strongest of all, the perfect, the terror. The wise shepherd protector of the people."(pg. 6) And so the hunter went, and he brought back with him a harlot and a temple prostitute, to lie with her, and so he would not be with the wild creatures. He lied with her for seven days. She told him to go with her to Uruk, to Gilgamesh. Enkidu said yes, but he felt that his wild was different now, he was changing, as I see it. Becasue when he alone, he loved the wild, but after having eaten from the tree of humans, the tree of vice, I think he starts to loose that, and so separates from the wild. "His body that loved the range of the fields was now unable to follow;but in the mind of the wild man there was beginning a new understanding."(pg.9) They got to a Shepherd village where he drank beer and dressed in new clothes. He is starting to become each time more of a human. They got to Uruk, were Enkidu met Gilgamesh in a wdding were Gilgamesh could lay with the bride before the husband. This is very strange, this tells me that Gilgamesh is like the alfa male of Uruk, well he is the king but it seems that more than that. Enkidu still being an animal stepped in front of the doorway to the bride. They fought, Gilgamesh and Enkidu like beasts, like gods. "wild bulls, locked- horned and staggering staggered wrestling through the city streets. "(pg. 15) But then Enkidu couln't fight anymore, and so he said that Gilgamesh, was stronger, the terror. So they shook hands and kissed. They proceeded to enter the foret with armor to see who could cut down the cedar tree first. 

This is a very engrossing novel, story, or book, whatever it is. It talks about fable and gods. But again, like the past novel, I'm sure it has a deeper meaning than that, but it seems to me that it will be easier to reach, to find it, but maybe not to understand it. I'll just have to keep on "feeding" myself on this writing...
