No, he raped every woman on her wedding night before her husband could consumate the marrige. I'm not familiar with the term "woolie", but if it's Enkidu you're talking about, yes they got him a prostitue(prostitutes had a very different connotation from what they have these days) to copulate with for a week.

the greeks would never have the Ilias if it weren't for the influence of the persians, which in turn came from the sumerians. So while yes, the Ilias is a greater masterpiece than the epic of gilgamesh, the Ilias(and ancient greek civilization as a whole) as we know it today, came only to be by the existence of the sumerians.
