What level does Gilgamesh belong in Dante's Hell?I'd like to know where and why he belongs there.

The level to which one is committed to in Dante's Hell is
based upon the character of the person and how they lived their life. based upon the
characteristics of Gilgamesh, he could be placed in many different
levels.

First, Gilgamesh could be placed in either Dante's
Fifth Level of Hell or Seventh Level of Hell. In the forest journey, Gilgamesh is faced
with making a decision about ending Humbaba's life. Although Humbaba pleads with
Gilgamesh, Gilgamesh refuses to hear his pleas and takes the head of the giant. Based
upon these actions, Gilgamesh could be "sentenced" to either the fifth level (belonging
to the wrathful and gloomy) or the seventh level (belonging to the
violent).

Another level of Dante's Hell which one could
place Gilgamesh into is Level Six (heretics). Depending upon ones own religious
theology, the fact that Gilgamesh does not believe in God could insure his fate of
spending his afterlife in the level deemed for the unbeliever.
