How are they different?]]> 2019-02-06 17:20:06 UTC https://padlet.com/fera1/bhano56rneeu/wish/328375174 https://padlet.com/fera1/bhano56rneeu/wish/330617847 Shamhat:the prostitue that brings Enkidu to civilization 
Ishtar: goddess of love that tries to make advances on Gilgamesh but he refuses her, and then she has her father send down the Bull of Heaven.
Similarity: both make advances on the story's hero partners
Differences: Ishtar is a goddess.

Shamahat is successful in seducing Enkidu but Ishtar is not with Gilgamesh. They both represent civilization somewhat because Shamahat showed Enkidu how to be a human and Ishtar kind of wanted Gilgamesh to settle down and marry her and have children like other kings.]]> 2019-02-13 00:25:04 UTC https://padlet.com/fera1/bhano56rneeu/wish/330619285
