Description

4000 years ago, the peoples of the Near East, the Hittites, Canaanites and Babylonians, used clay tablets to write down the tales and myths that have become the oldest stories of humanity. Outstanding accounts of ancient cultures, they tell us of the Gilgamesh Epic, the Canaanite tales of the Heavenly Bow, King Keret and Baal, and many other stories, each one as extraordinary as the next. They contain magic and symbolism, making the tales as pleasing to read as they are simple. The accompanying comments are accessible to all.
