Episode 7 - Göbekli Tepe

from Y0Y · host Matthew Hartless

11,000 years ago, our ancestors were still in the stone age, and had yet to develop agriculture. So, how did they come to build a massive stone structure overlooking the plains of the cradle of civilisation in modern day Turkey?   Göbekli Tepe is impossibly old, given our understanding of civilisation, but there it stands for all to see. Who built it and what for? Most intriguingly of all, why was it deliberately buried about a thousand years after its construction?   Support us on Buy Me a Coffee to get more content and help us make the show better!
