Before Homer, before the Bible, a woman in Ur wrote poetry that shaped civilization. In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore Enheduanna, the Akkadian princess and high priestess who became the first named author in history. Living around 2300 BCE, she was the daughter of Sargon of Akkad, appointed to the temple of the moon god Nanna in Ur. Her hymns to Inanna blend political theology with personal anguish, as she recounts being exiled by a rebel priest.
