Historic Figures who never existed…

A Mesopotamian hero, Gilgamesh was the King of Uruk, best known for being cited in the ancient odyssey The Epic of Gilgamesh. Recorded in the Akkadian language, the poem details Gilgamesh's quest to seek immortality following the death of his companion, Enkidu. Historians generally believe that Gilgamesh existed in some form, though it's unlikely his adventures in the epic were ever real.
