The Ancient Sumerian Epic of Creation | Ancient Mesopotamian Great Flood Myth | ASMR soft-spoken

Noah’s Ark and the Flood Story of Genesis is one of the first “history” lessons you may have learned, yet The Anunnaki Sumerians spun a similar tale that makes us question did Genesis copy the Epic of Gilgamesh? The Eridu Genesis, The Sumerian Epic of Creation includes a Great Flood myth that predates Noah’s Ark and the Flood Story, Great Flood stories that are found in Ancient Mesopotamian literature like The Epic of Gilgamesh & Atrahasis. In the Sumerians Great Flood story, Noah of the Book of Genesis is referred to as Ziudsura (a wise priest-king from the city of Shuruppak / Suruppak), and later as Atrahasis in the Akkadian Great Flood Myth, and Utnapishtim in The Epic of Gilgamesh, recorded on 12 stone cuneiform tablets. Yet, no matter what this humanity-saving hero is called and how many days he was adrift at sea in his watertight Ark, the essential plot & message of the Great Flood myths remains the same. Great Flood Myths (Deluge Stories) have popped up in ancient Egyptian cultures (Ra and his daughter Sekhmet as the deities intending to wipe out humanity), Native American mythologies (Choctaw, Hopi, Inuit, Eskimo, etc), Mayan & Incan mythologies, Chinese myths, & Hindu mythology (e.g., Shatapatha Brahmana), among many others. What the ubiquity of the Great Flood Story in the Epic of Gilgamesh & Atrahasis & the Great Deluge Stories across cultures may reveal is a universal human fear of the forces of nature (even our own nature) & a desperate need to believe in a merciful, compassionate higher power willing to rescue us from the chaos & catastrophes of the world & the darkest parts of ourselves. #TheSumerians #Noah’sArkandFloodsintheAncientNearEast #GreatFloodGenesisCreation #EpicofGilgamesh This video is based on the stories contained in the Eridu Genesis | The Sumerian Epic of Creation & its Great Flood myth, the Atrahasis - The Creation of Humankind & The Epic of Gilgamesh. The video explores several topics including: The Sumerians and their civilizations (the Ancient Sumerians, The Anunnaki Sumerians), The Epic of Gilgamesh and the Flood, Noah’s Ark and Floods in the Ancient Near East, the Sumerian version of the Great Flood & Secrets on Sumarian Stones. The epic's hero seems to have two spellings in the literature: Ziudsura & Ziusudra. Both pronunciations are used in this video to cover all the bases.
