Lets put it into perspective. The believed duration of the settlements was 1400 years, at Karahan Tepe they have discovered so far with only 5% of the site being excavated 10,000 grinding bowls for grinding grains. Thats 7 stone grinding bowls being created everyday for 1400 years, isnt this way over the top for any settlement. The effort it takes to make a grinding bowl, how long a grinding bowl lasts until its no longer any use, why would they need so many grinding bowls if they where only harvesting wild grains that are much smaller. After watching Graham Hancock on JRE and his lack of evidence it got me thinking about the explanation of the bowls and if there is an anomaly that isnt yet explained its why would they need all those bowls when they arent supposedly needed for at least another 2000 to 3000 years in the future of the area.

@toddkloos3965 12 днів тому

Look up Boncuklu Tarla, Mureybet, and Tell Qaramel for some sites in the region that are slightly older than Karahan Tepe and Gobekli Tepe. If you want something that is a lot older, you can look up Ohalo 2 for a settlement that is twice as old as Gobekli Tepe. The problem is that if you get much older than Gobekli Tepe and Karahan Tepe they were using wood as the main building material rather than stone. Unless there were some exceptional circumstances (like what happened at Ohalo 2), wood isn't going to stay preserved for 12,000+ years and has long since rotted away.

Your narration gives life to a long lifeless people in our ancient past. It’s like meeting the ancestors of our ancestors. If only we all as the flame bearers of the past could put our differences aside for but a moment, we might hear what our history is trying to tell us. We wouldn’t keep each other from learning the truth of our beginnings. It is adventurers and investigators such as yourself that will keep our link to the past strong and available to all mankind.

It's a tragedy that every time humans find some new religion, they feel like they have to utterly destroy all the accumulated wisdom that came before them. The whole "conquering" mentality has probably kept humanity from evolving more than anything else. In the end you don't conquer anything - you just throw humanity back into the dark ages again. And again, and again. And we're getting ready to do it again over the next 50 years or so. For all of our conceited intelligence, we still don't get it. We're still going to cause our own downfall.

Funny how none of these supposed "experts" ever think of the obvious. It's a if they never read a book that wasn't funded by a university or been part of a community outside of elitism. Half man half beast, scary a joke. More likely hunters dressing like that which they want to get closer to so they can kill it. Or wearing a leopard skin while gathering berries so a leopard wouldn't attack its own. Just like hikers today wear hats with cat eyes on the back so big cats won't attack from behind. It could also represent the leaders of certain things. A man being seen as being a strong as a bear. Another as fast as a leopard. Another jumpy like a heron. I still go with men dressing to imitate the heron to attack animals for hunting.

Sorry about my butchering of French words. As a Brit it is physiologically impossible to reproduce the language of France

@bethwilliams4903 13 днів тому

I wouldn’t worry about it - the French disapprove of 90% of how other French pronounce French! If you’re from Quebec or Haiti or the ‘provinces’ you know what I mean!!!

Quite the documentary. Master Kelly, you've surpassed yourself. We may now be able to acclaim how civilizations began.

Fantastic video, with so much indepth analysis. Living in Istanbul for a number of years, we managed to visit Göbekli Tepe a couple of years ago, also visiting the fantastic Șanliurfa and Gaziantep museums, plus the famous beehive houses at Harran, near the Syrian border. It was a fantastic experience and now Karahan Tepe is next on the list.

It seems logical from the evidence that permanent habitat was the prerequisite for agriculture. Not the other way around as often assumed

@davids4313 15 днів тому

Although it wouldn't surprise me if hunter gatherers planted for new fruit trees before moving on. Whether this counts as agriculture I don't know.

@mrbaab5932 15 днів тому

Realize that before permanent agriculture there was part time agriculture, from 23,000 to 10,000 years ago. They planted left over seeds from their winter storage. Thwy did hunting gathering in the summer and then harvested planted and wild plants in the fall. Finally going back to hunting gathering and stored seed along with grain eating in the winter.

you can't just turn a switch to go from mobile hunter gatherers to agriculturalists. Pre-Agricultural sedentary cultures relied on what was available. Domestication was gradual so it only be somewhat of a mix of both.
