In 2003, a German-led expedition discovered the ancient city of Uruk in Iraq. It is supposed
to be the tomb of King Gilgamesh. The team used modern technology to scan the soil and
create a magnetogram that virtually revealed the architectural plan of the ancient city.
In the former Euphrates River area, researchers discovered the remains of a building that could
be interpreted as a tomb, which matched the description of Gilgamesh's tomb in the Epic
of Gilgamesh. However, Jörg Fassbinder of the Bavarian Department of Historical Monuments in
Munich said that he could not definitively confirm that the tomb belonged to the ancient king,
but that it closely resembled the description in the epic. Gilgamesh himself is considered
a Sumerian - Akkadian mythological hero. A giant over 5 meters tall.
Translations of several texts published in recent decades allow him to be accepted
as a real historical figure, and more specifically as the fifth ruler of the
1st dynasty of the city of Uruk in Sumer. Most likely, after his death, Gilgamesh was deified.
To make things even weirder on the US State Department website in the Freedom
of Information Act area we find an email with "Request for documents relating to the
Gilgamesh resurrection chamber, the location of his body and that of the buried Nephilim"
"Department of State FOIA log 2018." The email is found on page 470, number F-2019-02110.
Why did the State Department emails include a message "relating to the
resurrection of Gilgamesh and the location of the buried Nephilim"?
What happens after the supposed discovery of the ancient tomb is found out?
We will find the answers to this and other questions in this video!
The discovery of the ancient city of Uruk sheds new light on the historical context
of the legendary Sumerian king and his burial.
Gilgamesh is one of the most highly revered figures in ancient Mesopotamian mythology and
is believed to be the fifth king of Uruk. In many of the stories and epics in which
he appears, he is considered a demigod or god-king. Gilgamesh is also believed to
have played a role in the afterlife as a judge of the dead in the underworld.
He is also described as the lord of animals. His story and legends have been passed down
through the centuries and are the subject of many literary works and archaeological discoveries.
In the Epic of Gilgamesh, a set of inscribed clay tablets, it is described that he was buried under
the Euphrates River in a tomb that was built when the waters of the river parted after his death.
The epic is an epic poem from Mesopotamia and is one of the oldest literary works
preserved to this day. The plates and record date back to 2100 BC.
The location of the tomb was discovered by a German expedition, by detecting differences in
the soil. Thus, they created a magnetogram, which was then digitally mapped to obtain a detailed
structure of the area. This technology allowed them to cover over 100 hectares,
and to their great astonishment, they discovered structures already described with incredible
accuracy in the Epic of Gilgamesh, such as houses, gardens, and fields. In addition, they discovered
an advanced system of canals that made the city look like a water oasis in the desert,
testifying to a highly developed civilization.
"We found in an area just outside the city, in the bed of the former Euphrates River,
the remains of a building that can be interpreted as a funerary," said Mr. Fassbinder at the time.
"at this stage, I still don't want to say for sure that this is the tomb of King Gilgamesh,
but the resemblance is striking to what is described in the epic."
The Death of Gilgamesh
In fact, the end of Gilgamesh's days is very well recorded in the Sumerian
work The Death of Gilgamesh. Although its theme is found in the Epic of Gilgamesh,
it is not always included in modern translations.
The poem describes the death and burial of the heroic ruler of the city of Uruk. In Sumerian
tradition, Gilgamesh was considered the true king. He is believed to have been born of the divine
mother Ninsun and the mortal father Lugalbanda. The narrative of "The Death of Gilgamesh" begins
with the hero lying in bed, terminally ill. In his dream, his destiny is revealed: he has
reached the end of his appointed time on earth and will become the master of the underworld. After
Gilgamesh dies, the text moves on to a description of his burial, which may refer to the Ur tombs:
his beloved wife, his beloved son and his younger wife,
his favorite singer, butler and,
his favorite barber His favorite attendants who served
in the palace his favorite subjects...
When they lay down in their place with him, as in the pure palace of Uruk,
Gilgamesh son of Ninsun, weighed the gifts for the meeting
Ereshkigal weighed the gifts of Namtar.
The text continues with similarly brief descriptions of the offerings made to
about twenty deities and to several types of priestly functionaries, all of whom are now dead.
Undoubtedly, at the time, archaeologists were convinced that this revolutionary
discovery would unlock long-forgotten secrets and fundamentally change our understanding of history.
However, someone else had other plans. Only about weeks after the discovery of Gilgamesh's tomb,
the United States launched an invasion of Iraq. This forces Fassbinder and
his dedicated team to hastily abandon their research and evacuate the country,
leaving the mysterious secrets of their discovery shrouded in obscurity.
From then on, no one came close to this discovery. Or at least it's not widely known to have. In
recent years, the drying up of the Euphrates River has opened the door to newer and newer revelations
about our history. Unfortunately, by coincidence, or perhaps not so coincidentally, most of them end
up in a war zone. You may remember this from our previous videos where we mentioned to you that
further or any research is not possible due to the fact that the object falls into such an area.
This is exactly the case with one of the alleged locations of the Garden of Eden
that we have told you about. It seems that officially no one explores these deposits
of our ancient and forgotten history. However, it turns out that this is not quite the case.
State Department emails released under the Freedom of Information Act
A screenshot of an email from the State Department claiming to request documents related
to the "Gilgamesh resurrection chamber" and the "location of the buried Nephilim" has recently
been circulating online. It is not clear from the information whether the request was fulfilled.
It is assumed that the Nephilim mentioned in the request really
means the descendants of fallen angels and humans as described in religious texts.
The existence of the email has not been confirmed by authoritative sources and we have to inform you
that it is not clear whether it is authentic or the case is some kind of hacker's scam.
However, the fact is that as of today, the email requesting documents about the Gilgamesh
resurrection chamber and the location of the Nephilim is still on page 470 under number
F-2019-02110 in the FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) log of State Department 2018. It's also
important to know the accuracy and context of the email before drawing any conclusions.
Denetra D. Senigar is listed as the Applicant for the request on the State
Department's documents website. When we check this name, thousands of individuals appear on
the Internet, and there is no way to get meaningful information about this person.
This may be a pseudonym used by someone else.
There has also been speculation that the email may be a cryptic discussion
in which Gilgamesh was possibly used as a code name for something else.
It is not clear what the buried Nephilim could be referring to, and it is unlikely that a message
with such a title would be used to hide a code name, attracting so much attention in itself.
The Nephilim are mentioned in several ancient texts and are believed to be
a group of angels who rebelled against God. Subsequently, they decided to make
their home with the daughters of men on Earth, which led to the birth of giants.
The book of Genesis describes them as "mighty men who were of old, men who became famous."
The term "Nephilim" is derived from the Hebrew word "naphal" which means "to fall" or "fallen".
The exact nature and origin of the Nephilim are subject to debate and interpretation,
but they are generally believed to be a group of powerful and supernatural beings.
In some traditions, they are seen as evil and destructive, while in others they are portrayed
as heroic and righteous. Their actual existence has been a much-debated topic for centuries.
Perhaps one of the craziest ideas we've come across is that the government is trying to
resurrect fallen angels to wage war against God. Naturally, this is not based on any
credible scientific or religious theory, nor is it supported by any concrete facts. The theory goes
on to say that dark matter research conducted by CERN is being conducted in pursuit of the
awakening of the Beast. Of course, they are also not supported by any reliable sources or evidence.
If anything is clear, it is that in 2003 we learned that we were on the brink of
a revolutionary discovery that would change our understanding of human history forever, and it's
been 2 decades since then as if it never happened. Well, it's clearly not the case for everyone,
because somewhere, someone is still interested in this discovery. And on the path of logic,
if he wants to know where the resurrection chamber is, Gilgamesh and the Nephilim are clearly not
where they were in 2003, because then a simple search on the Internet would answer this question.
We hope you don't feel disappointed that you didn't learn more about Gilgamesh himself,
but after 2003 when his tomb and body were supposedly found, this is his story to date!
