here's the key::
"The poet and his audience knew that Uruk had been established long before Gilgamesh's day and the foundations of the great wall were laid by
"the Seven Sages", primeval wise men who first taught the arts of culture to humanity, long before the Flood. So it is not supposed here that Gilgamesh was the walls first builder, instead he has repaired and rebuilt the ancient wall no doubt enlarging it in the process. This was a major form of royal public works. 。。。。。。。。
