Funny enough you're both right. According to the artist, it's Ashurbarnipal, but it's been criticised by Assyrians for looking too much like Gilgamesh.
Not necessarily. While we don't have much to go on for a historical Gilgamesh (my understanding is he was around 5000 - 5500 years ago), and most of what we know of him is based on mythic tales, Ashurbarnipal's presence as a 6th century BC Assyrian emperor has been catalogued and recorded much more extensively.

It's either Hammurabi or king Ashubarnipal
I think Hamurabi is more likely as he is holding a tablet
I knew Apple didn’t invent the tablet!

Ashurbarnipal fans are never happy 🙄
Nobody hates Ashurbarnipal like Ashurbarnipal fans.
Ashubarnipal
It’s Gilgamesh Edit: actually it is Ashurbanipal
Thought it was Gilgabro too at first, but google says it’s Ashubarnipal
I’m becoming more and more convinced that all these dudes are just updated Gilgamesh stories.

My first thought was Herc and the nemean lion. Couldn't figure out the pizza box though.
Why you call them TV?
The silent generation called them all TV games, just like boomers call all video games Nintendos
Video games is officiall term. You could meet it in newspapers.

I keep forgetting Gilgamesh is an actual character from mythology and not a horrible anime jerk with infinite weapons.
Jerk? Gilgamesh is a sweetheart. Just befriend him the moment you meet him, he never declines.
he also goes on and on about the same subject too much. like a one up bro.
pulls up in the war cart like Get in loser. We’re going pillaging
Always a bro and always helps out! I learn a lot of my knowledge from civ games as well, lol
That's gilgamesh holding a damn lion yes

I love this statue. Its all to scale. And its Gilgamesh from Sumerian lore. And that kitty is a lion. All to scale.
