The World's Oldest Library: The Library of Ashurbanipal
When time goes on, and the world spins, hidden secrets will remain forgotten. Until one day, in a technologically advanced future, historians will discover what once were traces of a past story. In the case of King Ashurbanipal, historians delve into the past and find his vast library of clay tablets and fragments containing texts from his era in the 7th century BC. Among these texts arise stories such as the famous Epic of Gilgamesh, Poor Man of Nippur and the Myth of Adapa. Ashurbanipal's Library is one of the most important archaeological discoveries ever made as it provides thousands of primary sources, giving us an insight into the Mesopotamian world. The World's Oldest Library: The Library of Ashurbanipal is a book written by multiple students and all compiled into one single anthology with the help of Dr. Austin Mardon. Dr. Mardon is the Antarctic Institute of Canada's founder and provides excellent internship opportunities for students across the nation.
