OSPod Episode 72: Gilgamesh, Ziggurats, ...

OVERLY SARCASTIC PRODUCTIONS
About this episode

In the classroom or in the field, we'd love to know what Dr. Jones is up to...in the meantime, let's talk about the Epic of Gilgamesh and Mesopotamian ziggurats!

Our podcast, like our videos, sometimes touches on the violence, assaults, and murders your English required reading list loves (also we curse sometimes). Treat us like a TV-14 show.
