One of the most ancient civilizations, the Sumerian, is still the object of mystification. Where did the Sumerians come from? How did they explain life and death? What deities did they worship? And what did they see as the purpose of man?

Sumerian mythology is largely reconstructed from later Babylonian and Assyrian sources, which revealed to the world the story of the Flood, the legend of the land without death and sorrow, and the exploits of Gilgamesh. 'Sumerian Myths' will tell about heavenly and earthly gods, heroes and demons, legends and amulets, sacred rituals and magic spells.
