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?
It's about 20, 25 miles southeast from that area. Oh, wow. Yeah. And you got like a kind of a 3D scan of it. My buddy did some drone stuff there. They made a 3D scan. Holy shit. That's incredible. Yeah. I mean, a lot more has been excavated since this. This was done in 2021.

Look at that, dude. Yeah. And so this one at the front here, that's called structure AA. That's called what we call the pit shrine. You've got the path going up there. And then behind that, you've got the pillar shrine, structure AB. Then the big structure, the big kind of stone circle structure.

structure ad but on the right hand side of that big structure where your cursus is now that's carved out of bedrock so some of the t-shaped pillars and benches are carved out of the bedrock on the right hand side the kind of western side of it and whereas the rest is you know got freestanding pillars carved and then placed there so look at that i mean it's just unbelievable have you seen have you ever seen the kailasa temple in india

It was, yes. That's insane, that place. That's like a wonder of the world, that place. It is totally insane. I couldn't believe it. Yeah, I went there in February. It's like a cathedral carved out of the side of a mountain. And apparently it's like one... It's almost like they come in from the top... had a clear design in their head and just gone down like this somehow.

But that's it. I mean, the thing about the Kailasa temple, I mean, that's one of about 30 or 40 temples at this one site, you know, which I didn't realize when I got there. I had a day there and it was not enough. And I spent my whole time there and maybe one of the temple. I mean, I'm sure Praveen talked about this. Yeah, man. Have you been there? I have been there. Really? Yeah.

And it really got me. I mean, I was like, whoa, this is like much bigger, much more intricate than I realized. When did they say that was built? When is the accepted date for that? I think it's only like about a thousand years ago or something or less.

Officially. But Praveen doesn't think so. He thinks it's much older. I mean, now they found sites like this. They found Karahan Tepe. Everything should be looked at again. There needs to be another look at the dating of these sites around the world. Because if they were doing this then, I mean...
