"His name was called Gilgamesh.

From the very day of his birth,He was two-thirds god, one third man,The Great Goddess Aruru designed him, planned his body, prepared his form.

A perfect body the gods gave.

For the creation of Gilgamesh, Shamash the Sun gave beauty, Adad the Storm gave courage and so he surpassed all others.

He was two-thirds god, one third man,The form of his body no one can match."

—Epic of Gilgamesh
