I thought that Gilgamesh was an intresting king of Mesopotamia. Gilgamesh was one of the first rulers of Mesopotamia and he also made 282 laws in the new written language named cuneiform.
I thought that Gilgamesh had good and bad laws.One of the laws is that if you kill someone you will be burned to death.This was a good example of a bad law and his brutality which he abused.What I mean by that is he thought he was the best ruler ever.He abused his power as a ruler.
People would also always try to attack him but they could'nt because he was to powerful. He had a huge castle which was very difficult for attackers to get into. He kept prisoners in the castle because they showed disrespect to him.Nobody was able to conquer him. He also showed disrespect to the gods.He was a man of his own .
