  1. Im Sachen prähistorischer #Archäologie ist das Wissenschaftsregal im Zeitungskiosk mit #AntikeWelt zu den #TasTepeler samt #Göbeklitepe und #ArchäologieInDeutschland zu #Schamanismus samt #BadDürrenberg​er "Schamanin" übrigens gerade recht lohnend und kurzweilig ausgestattet, würd' ich sagen. 😉

  3. 12,000 years ago, people at Göbekli Tepe may have carved what is now believed to be the oldest solar calendar ever discovered.
    Symbols on pillars — especially lots of “V” marks — might represent days, with special markings for the summer solstice.
    If correct, this is a striking example of early humans observing the skies, measuring time, and encoding it in stone — long before writing as we know it.

  4. Until about 20 years ago, it was widely believed that civilization began with the Sumerians around 7,000 years ago. However, the discovery of Göbekli Tepe, located on the border between Syria and Turkey, has dramatically altered our understanding of ancient history. The oldest remains of Göbekli Tepe date back at least 12,000 years, pushing back the timeline of human civilization by several millennia #civilization #gobeklitepe #histroy

  9. By the way: For these #leopards themselves we do also find clear analogies within the region's and period's #iconography. Namely, again, at #GobekliTepe.

    (And the wonderful fur pattern here at #Sayburc also convince me to maybe finally give up our earlier #lion interpretation.)

  10. Interesting's also the combination of #Sayburc man & those #leopards by his sides.

    With bared teeth they seem to evoke danger. Such juxtaposition of virility & threat however finds parallels e.g. in the headless phallus-guy on #GobekliTepe's Pillar 43:
