Popol Vuh vs. Gilgamesh

The two texts Gilgamesh and Popol Vuh have many similarities, theme letters etc, but Popol Vuh and Gilgamesh are the same. I personally do not think these two texts are similar. In my opinion, these two texts are similar. We need to present a similar generic theme that applies to the whole text, not a small topic that applies only to text parts. In other words, I think the two texts can have similar events, but I think they can have quite different meanings. Popol Vuh and Gilgamesh actually have similarities rather than similarities, but the importance of these similarities is really important, not quantity.

Popol Vuh describes the first three creations that the gods did not achieve and the fourth world that produced success in the place where the men were placed. In the Maya long count, the previous creation ended at the beginning of the 14th b'ak'tun. The previous creation ended with a long-term count of 12.19.19.17.19.
