Answer 1

He turned our faces towards each other, he stood between us, he blessed us [saying],

“Formerly Utnapishtim was a man merely.

But now let Utnapishtim and his wife be like unto the gods, ourselves.”

Answer 2

The Epic of Gilgamesh is an epic poem from ancient Mesopotamia that is considered to be the earliest surviving significant literature.

What is the major point of the Gilgamesh Epic?

Gilgamesh's story is about human life and human issues. What does it mean to be human? Gilgamesh is remembered for his human achievements (such as loving a friend more than himself, preserving his city, and learning to accept mortality), not his divinity.

Thus, Option C is correct.
