Indeed, I was expecting Sumerian Cuneiform. Though for some reason Gilgamesh always gets Babylonian themed stuff, despite being a Sumerian demigod king of Uruk. Ea is the Babylonian name for the god Enki, Enuma Elish is the Babylonian creation story, etc.
Babylonian is unrelated to Sumerian, too, since it's a Semitic language, stemming from Akkadian, unlike Sumerian. Seems like some people never did the proper research. Even if the most complete copies of the Epic of Gilgamesh are Babylonian. Not to mention the Sumerian variant of his name is Bilgamesh.
