Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gilgamesh is considered the earliest among the listed figures, primarily known from the Epic of Gilgamesh, a piece of literature from ancient Mesopotamia. While there is debate about his historical existence, he is often placed chronologically before the others, as a king of Uruk in the Early Dynastic Period, which predates the Akkadian Empire of Sargon and the Babylonian reign of Hammurabi. Enlil is not a king but a god in Mesopotamian mythology.
