Who exactly was the "priest king" from Mohenjo-daro. It's from the era of the early river civilization of the Indus river valley. The information should be from around 2307 BC or before.

  1. The sculpture from Mohenjo-daro called the Priest King is n unknown male. There is no real evidence from that civilization that they were ruled by either priests or kings.

    The city itself was built somewhere around 2600 BC, some historians say that the civilization was lost somewhere around 1700 BC. This particular civilization was located in Pakistan. Unfortunately, we have no names for the rulers/governors of Mohenjo-daro.

    Gilgamesh was a Sumerian king, circa 2600 BC, so same time, but wrong place.


  2. Gilgamesh
