Answer 1

C. Gilgamesh conquers Humbaba after a long and violent struggle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gilgamesh recounts the tale of an old King of Uruk, Gilgamesh, who may have really existed, and whose name is on the Sumerian King List. The account of Gilgamesh, in different Sumerian forms, was initially generally known in the third thousand years B.C.

After a long history of retellings, this story was recorded, in an institutionalized Akkadian rendition, in the seventh century B.C., and put away in the popular library of King Ashurbanipal.
