What the fuck was happening at Göbekli Tepe?
>>
It's just a meme
>>
>>3058623

You forgot the best part, the people buried and rebuilt 3 progressively smaller temples on top of each other before finally burying the last one for... some reason.
>>
>>3058623

Probably a Hwan Mothership docking structure built by Wewuzian mercenaries. Or a temple of some sort.
>>
Obviously it was some kind of Neolithic shrine to their animistic gods.

Doesn't have to be more complicated than that.
>>
>>3058623
It's literally just giant stones piled next to each other, it was ooga boogas killing boredom.

Atlantis was real, they were the refugees. They settled in Southeast Turkey after Meltwater pulse 1b destroyed civilization. They went on to found Sumer and and Egypt.
>>
>>3058908
This was not erected by hunter gatherers, they had established technology and civilization.

>This was not erected by hunter gatherers

No, but the agricultural revolution started approximately in 12000 BC, so it's highly unlikely that the people who built Göbekli Tepe were hunter-gatherers.
>>
>>3058930
And even if they were, there literally are cities built by primarily hunter-gatherers. Back when agriculture still wasn't enough to feed a lot of people.

23,000 years ago, around the start of Atlantean civilization.

>>3058935
No there isn't. There were farmers who also hunted, that's not hunting and gathering. people in America literally still do that.

Are you retarded? No one said main anywhere.

Either way, it doesn't change anything. Most groups of humans throughout most of pre-history numbered maybe 250-400 people in villages, and that is certainly enough people to build something like Göbekli Tepe, if knowledge was accumulated enough.

I could even imagine that is was a legit town of a 1000 people at some chokepoint of trade, which led them to accumulate enough knowledge to build such a structure.
>>
>>3058948
Gunung Padang is a 12,000 year old, 300 foot Pyramid, you're missing a lot of the picture buddy.

And if you were right, there would be other similar structures built by hunter gather groups, despite them not making anything more impressive than longhouses.
>>
>>3058962
>you're missing a lot of the picture buddy

Which is what exactly? Space aliens?
>>
>>3058969
Yes moron, only aliens can build pyramids. You're truly brilliant.
>>
>>3058962
>And if you were right, there would be other similar structures built by hunter gather groups

As the area was abandoned, surrounding ancient villages have evidence of similar but less grandoise monoliths.
>>
>>3058993
Obviously part of that group, I'm speaking about hunter gatherers in general. They did not erect massive stone temples over large areas, they built longhouses and stacked a few rocks.
>>
>>3058998
There are monuments like these all over the world.

IT'S LITERALLY ROCKS
>>
>>3059010
Gobekli Tepe is in a completely different category than stacking a few rocks. There are not megalithic monuments all over the world like Gobekli Tepe, built by hunter-gatherers. This conversation is not difficult to follow, maybe you're hungover or something.
>>
>>3058998
You realise at some point, hunter gatherers had to build something to then NOT be hunter gatherers, right? Like they were HG, then they were not HG after that?
>>
>>3059040
You don't have to "build" anything to not be a hunter gatherer, you just have to start farming.

Holy fucking shit dude
>>
>>3058628
Thats pretty common though, Mesopotamians also built their new temples on top of the old one, making a staircase base
>>
>>3059045
>start farming
>without a farm

>>3059061
I'm starting to think that you're legitimately mentally disabled.

Remember to always sage shit threads.
>>
>>3059069
Saging doesn't do anything except stop your own post from bumping the thread. Anyway I don't see anything wrong with this thread.
>>
>>3059096
It's clearly some faggot trying to shitpost about the mythical proto-kangdom of wewuziand or aliens.
>>
>>3059061
friendly reminder that agriculture != farming
All farming is agriculture but not all agriculture is farming

Nice assumption there faggot
