Cedar Forest
The Cedar Forest ( Sumerian: 𒄑𒂞𒄑 𒌁giš eren giš tir) is the glorious realm of the gods of Mesopotamian mythology. It is guarded by the demigod Humbaba and was once entered by the hero Gilgamesh who dared cut down trees from its virgin stands during his quest for fame. The Cedar Forest is described in Tablets 4{{ndash6 of the ''Epic of Gilgamesh''. Earlier Sumerian versions of the ''Epic of Gilgamesh'' say that Gilgamesh traveled east, presumably, to the Zagros mountains of Iran (ancient Elam) to the cedar forest, yet the later more extensive Babylonian examples place the cedar forests west in Lebanon.''Archaeology and the Homeric Epic'', Susan Sherratt, John Bennett. Oxbow Books, 2017. P127 In the ''Epic of Gilgamesh'' Tablet 4 Tablet four tells the story of the journey to the Cedar Forest.
