Related: About this forumIf you, like me, have been wondering why it seems so difficult to find updates on Gobeckli Tepe,
here's a video that might explain the situation. Hint: There's lots of money in tourism for a place touted as THE Zero Point of History. Dang, I really want to know more about all of the Tas Tepeler sites now!!!

(8,869 posts)Excavations done in Mexico are often deliberately slow to allow time for new thoughts and perhaps better analytical tools to be employed. It makes for better long term solutions which may occur after our lifespans. So maybe that is the case here too.

Thank you for the video.
(I have heard one of the researchers from the site saying they have only scratched the surface, that there is a vast area stretching at least 25 miles covered by soil to be revealed in the time ahead. There is also another site in the region named another "Tepe" which also is being slowly explored.
