'''Gilgamesh''' is a [[human]] [[human colonies|colony world]]. It is a lawless world, mainly controlled by mobsters and [[Insurrectionist]]s, and is relatively obscure as a result. The planet has a large and refined brothel on its surface.<ref>'''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]]''', ''page 330''</ref>

In [[2552]], the [[Artificial intelligence|AI]] construct [[Cortana]] wired a transfer of funds to the Gilgamesh brothel, masquerading as [[Colonel]] [[James Ackerson]]. This was her form of payback for his heavy-handed attempt to make sure that [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Halsey]]'s [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR]] AI-[[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan]] integration test failed. Since the brothel would send a confirmation of this action, she knew that this action would make his wife quite mad and in turn disrupt his life.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''pages 266-267''</ref>

Gilgamesh apparently still existed during the [[Battle of Earth]], as evidenced by active transports from the colony to the [[Quito Space Tether]].<ref>'''[[Halo 3]]''', [[multiplayer]] level, ''[[Orbital]]''</ref>

==Trivia==
[[Wikipedia:Gilgamesh|Gilgamesh]] was a Sumerian king that ruled Mesopotamia (specifically Assyria) circa 2650 BC. He was the Sumerian equivalent to Hercules, as he was considered a demigod of superhuman strength.
