Gilgamesh Reading Tablet XI

Tablet XI
Conections
This was the longest tablet we've read so far and we could call it the third adventure in the book. First being the struggle through the forest to kill Huwawa, second being Gilgamesh going through the darkness. When Gilgamesh enters the garden he is recieved by an inmortal named Utnapishtim who used to be mortal and has now become a God. He tells him a story that could easily be compared to "noahs ark" a story that was written later in the bible. We can infer that most likely the people who wrote the bible might have taken some morals from the book of Gilgamesh. It also uses the number 7 when saying how long it took to build the ark. We can also see the number 7 appearing multiple times in the bible when according to the old testament God creates the world in 7 days.
I can also relate personally to Gilgamesh when he looses the plant and he has to seek it again, as this can compare to doing a project and forgetting to save to have it all deleted when the light goes out.
