Transcript was put into the Closed Captions so turn it on and read along!

The Kesh Temple Hymn is tied with the Instructions of Shuruppak, as the oldest surviving writing. And luckily this ancient Sumerian text is in such such good shape that we can read it fairly straight through. Except for the abrupt ending. I hope you enjoy this immersive reading!
