With: Lord Raglan's Hero Index, myths in general, early poetry, ancient mesopotamia (Uruk in Babylonia), and sure, I'll say it, Jesus (as THAT's what you seemed to be fishing for anyway).
... but really mostly with Lord Raglan's Hero Index (see links). Sadly, Gilgy only gets a 15 to Big J's 19 (or 18).

Oh, I almost forgot (well, ok, I DID forget, then remembered again).
I think:
BEFORE Gildas,
BEFORE, Geoffrey of Monmouth
BEFORE, JRR Tolkien
THERE WAS the ORIGINAL mythical adventure story, Gilgamesh
