The myths collected here, originally written over 4,000 years ago, include tales that parallel the biblical stories of the Creation and the Flood, and the famous Epic of Gilgamesh . The collection also features notes, a glossary of deities, place-names, and key terms, and illustrations of the mythical monsters in the text. Recent developments in Akkadian grammar and lexicography mean that this new translation will replace all other versions.
