Göbeklitepe takes European’s roots back to Anatolian lands

Göbeklitepe, the prehistoric site situated 15 kilometers away from the city of Şanlıurfa in southeastern Turkey represents a reset in terms of our knowledge about civilization, according to an expert. It is more evidence that Anatolia's contribution to the rise of civilization is much greater than we thought, said Nezih Başgelen. The site is about 7,000 years older than Stonehedge in England.
