A temple complex in Turkey that predates even the pyramids is rewriting the story of human evolution.



They call it potbelly hill, after the soft, round contour of this final lookout in southeastern Turkey. To the north are forested mountains. East of the hill lies the biblical plain of Harran, and to the south is the Syrian border, visible 20 miles away, pointing toward the ancient lands of Mesopotamia and the Fertile Crescent, the region that gave rise to human civilization.

This story is huge. They have found basically a temple that is over 11,000 years old! I have not heard of this archeological discovery before.

Your is a little different information. I linked to here from your site and found this very interesting also. www.disinfo.com...

Thanks for the heads up about the other thread; I look forward to reading it. My search revealed nothing but I think I will do more than title keyword related type searches from now on.

I am also glad you found that Filpov article, I have been wondering what had happened with that story. I had been following it from the Kevin Smith radio podcast show (who had claimed to speak with him and now thinks he was undergoing some form of brainwashing.)
