Faced with the prospect of his own mortality, Gilgamesh vowed to find the secret to eternal life.

After forcing Gilgamesh to cut down 300 trees and make 1000 oars, the boatman, Urshanabi, agreed to take Gilgamesh across the waters of death to see Utnapishtim.Utnapishtim said he would grant eternal life if Gilgamesh could stay awake for 6 days and 7 nights. Gilgamesh agreed but after the long, arduous journey, he fell asleep. Utnapishtim gave Gilgamesh one more chance. He told him of a special flower growing at the bottom of the sea that would grant him immortality. Gilgamesh swam to the bottom of the sea and found the flower. When he was on land, he lay the flower down while he rested and bathed. A snake slithered down from the dunes and ate the flower! Gilgamesh was crushed and returned to Uruk defeated. As Gilgamesh approached the massive, finely crafted walls of Uruk, he realized that while he may not live forever, his accomplishments and creations will live on to tell of his greatness.
