Quote:That honor likely belongs to The Epic of Gilgamesh
Gilgamesh was derived from the earlier myths of Atrahasis and Ziusudra. Sadly, the bible is, at best, 5th century BC horseshit cobbled together in the aftermath of the Persian conquest of Babylon.
But we have much other early Sumerian writing. The jews were johnny-come-lateleys! Curiously, Herodotus toured the area and never fucking heard of them. Guess they weren't so important after all.
