   Additional Information  
 
  All the Sumerian myths found on cuneiform tablets have been woven into one huge story. It looks back to creation and the birth of the gods, to the Flood and the Tree of Life, but its central figure is Inanna, the Morning and Evening Star, goddess of love and war. It tells of her descent to the Netherworld to challenge its terrifying queen, of her fatal love for the unfaithful Dumuzi, of her rejection of Gilgamesh, and his desperate search for eternal life.
