Is there a meme guide for setting off with the sumerians or are they not actually that important
>>7516227
They wrote the first written word in Western culture.
The Epic of Gilgamesh inspired every civilization's writing for centuries.
Just go ahead and stop now. You're obviously too stupid for this kind of hobby.

>i think turn of the common era tabloid gossip, chicken soup for the soul: rome edition, and bad historians are worthwhile literature

>these are the people that you discuss literature with.
I think that it's finally time I left this board.
