She was the high priestess of the moon god and history’s first known author. By the time of her exile, she had written 42 hymns and three epic poems—and Sumer hadn’t heard the last of her.Enheduanna lived 1,700 years before Sappho,1,500 years before Homer,and about 500 years before the biblical patriarch Abraham.She was born in Mesopotamia, the land between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers,and the birthplace of the first cities and high cultures.Her father was King Sargon the Great, history’s first empire builder,who conquered the independent city-states of Mesopotamia under a unified banner.
