In Eanna, Meskingasher, son of the Sun-god, ruled as high priest and king for three hundred and twenty-five years. Lugalbanda, the shepherd, ruled for twelve hundred years. Gishbilgames, whose father was A, the high priest of Kullab, ruled for one hundred and twenty-six years. The verb may also imply descent into. The phrase appears to have been imperfectly copied by the scribe.
In their progress Khosráu said to Fríburz and Tús, "Ferúd, who is my brother, has built a strong fort in Bokhára, called Kulláb, which stands on the way to the enemy, and there he resides with his mother, Gúlshaher. Let him not be molested, for he is also the son of Saiáwush, but pass on one side of his possessions."
When Kai-khosráu heard of this heavy reverse, he wrote to Fríburz, saying, "I warned Tús not to proceed by the way of Kulláb, because my brother and his mother dwelt in that place, and their residence ought to have been kept sacred. He has not only despised my orders, but he has cruelly occasioned the untimely death of both.
On the other hand, the human father of Gilgamesh is described as the high priest of Kullab, and we know from other sources that his mother was the goddess Ninsun. That this is not a fanciful interpretation is proved by a passage in the Gilgamesh Epic itself, in which its hero is described as two-thirds god and one-third man.
