his right towards the hold stone where the winter solstice comes in even though the head face is roughly oh really yeah so you can't really see it clearly on here but they said they went in there and actually saw that so yeah so we've got like we've got this winter solstice thing going on here which is bizarre but then that suggests if they were doing that then then they must have known about it long before then they must have developed it and built the site because the head the whole pillar shrine and the whole stone

a bedrock. They're carved out of bedrock, so it's a permanent fixture. They're not stones that could be moved. So they must have been doing it for a long time before they even started building the site, sort of build up to it. So yeah, I mean, it's pretty compelling.

I mean, then you've got possible alignments like this at Gobekli Tepe, and as more gets excavated, there's going to be a whole bunch more of these kind of things coming out of this part of the world. So there's, yeah, it's a lot to consider when you're looking at these sites. What is that bedrock? How hard is bedrock? This is limestone. It's limestone. Okay, gotcha.

I mean, it's not super tough, but still, you've got to work at it. It's not easy, that's for sure. Plus, at Quebecly Tepe, they were carving out these beautiful 18-foot tall T-shaped pillars. And then moving them half a mile, some of them weighing up to like 20, 25 tons maybe.

And then they carved it so the lower section, the tall section, and then they have a top section, which looks like it's separate, but it's not. It's the same stone.

on top with a with a no face on it's like an no face on it but it's supposed to represent a head because you've got the arms coming down the side right hands across the navel coming around the front belts around it with like fox pelts underneath it and things like this so there's like the intricacy and the abstract nature of the artwork Really shouldn't have been exist back then.

I mean, it just shouldn't have been. I mean, there is a buildup. You can see Natufian sites down south in Syria and places like this, which show geometry, which show a bit of astronomy, which show stonework, but nothing like this. I mean, this just went bang when Gobekli Tepe was being built. And then this came pretty soon after. Now, how far is Karahan Tepe from Gobekli Tepe?
