Answer:

C) The Epic of Gilgamesh

Explanation:

The Epic of Gilgamesh is an ancient Sumerian tale, regarded as the most ancient work of literature that survived to this day. It was written in Cuneiform, the oldest form of scripture that was invented by the Sumerians around 3500 BCE. This epic tells the story of Gilgamesh, king of Uruk, who started a quest throughout the world in search of immortality. This journey takes him to the ends of the world, where he meets the wise and immortal Utnapishtim, a survivor of the universal flood.

The influence of this work in the Bible is recognized and academically accepted. The theme of the Flood shows a direct influence and also the conception of a fruit that confers immortality, which is stolen by the intervention of a snake. Other themes such as the hero-king, the righteous action of the gods, the friendship between the heroes and the importance of dreams, although they appear in both works, are part of a shared cultural matrix.
