Carvings of human figures and heads have been uncovered at an important settlement of Neolithic period
The discovery at Karahantepe in Turkey reveals the artistic skills of people who lived there 11,000 years ago
So far more than 250 T-shaped megaliths featuring animal depictions have been found at the excavation site
Digging at the site first began in 2019 and has also led to the discovery of a building with a diameter of 75ft

Stunning carvings of human figures and heads have been uncovered at what is considered to be one of the most important settlements of the Neolithic period.
The discovery at Karahantepe, in Turkey's southeastern province of Şanlıurfa, reveals the artistic skills of people who lived there 11,000 years ago.
So far more than 250 T-shaped megaliths featuring animal depictions have been found, along with a number of three-dimensional human sculptures.
PinGGG!.................
Kinda looks like Gerry Nadler...
It does!...................
God created Adam and eve complete and mature adults that never lived in caves per se’
Watched an interesting YouTube video awhile back which compared carvings on the *back* of the Easter Island statues (I didn't even know there were carvings on the back!) with the carvings at gobekli tepe. Many iconic similarities including the bird-like creatures. Could these all be ruins from the same antediluvian culture?
Hunter Biden does better art than this. /s
. . . and who I guess would be imprisoned or killed if they showed up now, since Islam forbids art that portrays anything living. Doesn't that put those Neolithic dudes way ahead of the sh*thole Moslem country that sits above ground now--where it's illegal to create what the Turks just found?
The descendants of Turkmen from Central Asia who run the Anatolian peninsula now have no connection to the Neolithic geniuses who made this stuff. What will the Turks do? Destroy it? Probably sell it for the greater glory of money. (But please to be making sure there are no graven images on the bills.)
Probably the same peoples.............
11,000 years ago was before agriculture and domestication of animals. Had to do a lot of hunting and gathering to get all this manual labor done. Someone kad to be in charge too with a vision.
As far as we currently know. This site may have been the prototype.
Or, it could be that they are unrelated. Especially since Easter island 8 or 9 thousand years later.
Let’s hope archeologist Indiana Jones doesn’t show up - he usually destroys archeological sites after removing one item.
They say the site is older than Gobekli, but nowhere did I see an actual date attesting to that. You have one?
Easter Island

No one has yet come across a radio or tv set or lost skyscrapers. I guess they are all buried under the oceans and the poles.
