Reading the first two tablets of The Epic of Gilgamesh It’s very clear that both Gilgamesh and Enkidu have such a huge part in that book. Gilgamesh is the main half god character with the power that everybody fear among his kingdom while Enkidu is the hero that the gods creates to give Gilgamesh some kind of opponent.
Enkido was living among the animals in the wilderness, but after he got seduced by Shamhat he became more human like and got more civilized. Which was really fast in fact that the writer made it seem more like he was waiting for someone to get him to the first step of knowing the humans to find his right place amongst them. Enkidu got mad when he heard about the actions of Gilgamesh and went to challenge him for a fight which surprisingly ended up with both of them becoming close friends.

Popol vuh in this part was all about the beginning of the old world in Quiche and how the group of three gods known as the heart of the sky and sovereign plumed serpent decided to create the earth and creatures to praise them afterwards. After pulling the land out of the sea and creating the mountains. They started by creating the animals which didn’t satisfy them as they weren’t able to speak in order to praise the gods, so the gods destined them to be killed. Then they started creating the humans by a process of trial and error. They used the mud at first but as it didn’t work out they tried creating them from the wood after that which led them to be heartless and emotionless and this part shows us how they got wiped out by the flood as result of being useless. Therefore the creation of the earth and the process of creating creatures that are able to praise and worship the gods was the main storyline of this part.
