Lugalbanda insists on joining his older brothers, the seven strong princes of Uruk, when they go off to war against the city of Aratta. After a sudden illness strands him in the wilderness, Lugalbanda convinces the gods to restore him to health. Using magical strength, he then journeys over the mountains to bring a message to the great goddess Inana. This ancient Sumerian epic, one of the oldest written stories, was carved in cuneiform on clay tablets that were found in what is now Iraq. Introduction. Author's note. Full-color art.
