The Complete History and Mythology of the Sumerians takes you on an unforgettable journey through both the factual achievements and the timeless myths of humanity's first great civilization. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFew people know that the Sumerians not only pioneered laws, schools, and empires, but also gave us some of the earliest epic tales, from the flood story that echoes in the Bible to the adventures of Gilgamesh, the first hero in literature.
