Gilgamesh's death was vrapped in mystery.
But right ow prof. Pettinato is translating
the last few stone tablets, coming from Iraq.

Gilgamesh had a dream:
immortality was not achievable.
A big grave was built, with a golden roof.
The Euphratis river flooded the grave.
In which Gilgamesh died, with his family.
