GGG Ping.
Every thing I've ever read about the rise of civilization is thrown on its head.
Have you ever been in a . . . in a Turkish prison?
Once again, another great find and post Blam. Thank you.
Amazing. 10,000 BC for real!
Um..yeah.
Why would hunters give a rats ass about building a solar/star calculator? It seems that would be a bit more important to people who had some form of real civilization, not people who chase down game to subsist.
If all your time is spent killing animals to live you dont erect monuments.
Seems the timeline for 'pottery and wheat' needs updating from this find, not forcing one's preconceived notions onto the find.

They had to have free time to carve the stones. That means either localized hunting, fishing and gathering was very very good, or they had some sort of localized agriculture.
