Otázka: Viete v ktorej písomnosti bolo prvýkrát spomenuté pivo?
Odpoveď: V epose o Gilgamešovi (teda jednou z prvých písomnosti vobec). Epos okrem iného opisuje ako z Enkida, zvieracieho tvora, stáva človek. Aby sa zmenil, učí sa v meste Uruku jesť chleba a pit pivo. Najstaršia civilizacia Sumerovia, teda definovala ľudstvo chlebom a pivom.
Anglicka verzia:
They placed food in front of him,
they placed beer in front of him;
Enkidu knew nothing about eating bread for food,
and of drinking beer he had not been taught.
The harlot spoke to Enkidu, saying:
"Eat the food, Enkidu, it is the way one lives.
Drink the beer, as is the custom of the land."
Enkidu ate the food until he was sated,
he drank the beer-seven jugs!-- and became expansive and sang with joy!
