They were doing this whole thing with it. Yeah, it's pretty impressive.

Yeah, if you put in terrazzo.

Oh, yeah. Let's say 825 Celsius. 825 Celsius. Yeah, yeah. So that would be, let's say you make the kind of, you break it down. So a little bit hotter for copper. Yeah, pretty interesting. And so they had all these kind of innovations and technologies happening in this part of the world, which... really all developed here.

This is like loads of inventions, loads of innovations that the world first ever saw were at these sites. Have you ever been to Egypt? Yes. Yes, I've been to Egypt. You've been inside the Great Pyramid and all that? Yeah, that's a whole different level. That is insane when you come to stonework and technologies. My goodness. Is this one of the Egyptian... Yeah, that's one of the 3D prints.

I mean, you've got stuff like this going on. But actually, you've got these plates. If you want to have a look, there's these ones from Karahan Tepe, these stone plates. If you want to type in Karahan Tepe stone plates, these are insane as well. And so not quite the level of these vases or vases, I think it's called. But here we go. Yeah, you can see some of them there. So these have been found.

And... Yeah, these stone plates are like, you know, two or three feet wide, sometimes four feet wide max.

These are carved from basalt and granite and other such things. That's all we got. I've actually got some better images than this in one of my articles. There you go. Up online somewhere. Is that it? Yeah, that's them there, basically. Yeah, yeah. That's probably my photo. I'm not sure.

So these were deliberately broken as well at the end of their use and then placed on the benches around the edge of Karahan Tepe. And again, but these are like 11,400 years old, so considerably older than the ones in Egypt. Wow. But some of them are extremely hard stone and very well made. And even that one on the right, it's got almost like a kind of cut mark, like a little...
