And that led archaeologists to dive in on him, and there was a ganging up of archaeologists, and complaints were made to the peer-reviewed journal that published it, and finally they retracted his paper without any good reasons. I've got a major article by Danny on my website explaining what happened here. It's like... It's like we don't want too much attention brought to this. Let's crush it.

Let's crush it right now. The same thing is happening with the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis. An enormous amount of attacks are being made on that hypothesis rather than considering it as an interesting explanation for the cataclysms at the end of the Ice Age. A lot of people are just focused on trying to destroy it in every way possible. And I can't help wondering.

Maybe there's some truth, deep truth to this, that there was a cataclysm, that there was an ancient apocalypse, something really horrific that happened. Maybe it's a cyclical disaster. Maybe it's coming around again. This is something that would lead any government to want to avoid panic, to suppress, to cover up these issues. So that would be the conspiracy theory.

That's also possible. That's also possible. But in their favor and to their credit, the excavation of that whole area around, not Gobekli Tepe itself, but other neighboring sites, Karahan Tepe is the best known, was Turkish archaeologists, it's interesting, are calling this now a civilization. They're calling it the Tas Tepeler civilization, the Stone Hills civilization.

And they're finding that the same iconography, the same building techniques, not quite on the scale of Göbekli Tepe, are repeated all across the region. They extend all the way down to the south of the Jordan Valley to Jericho. The ancient site of Jericho is part of that lost civilization. or emerging civilization that appeared at the end of the Younger Dryas.

Cyprus is another example I was mentioning about how it was settled in what appeared to have been planned, organized settlement events near the end of the last Ice Age. Again, you find that same iconography that you find at Gobekli Tepe turning up there. Which iconography specifically?
