Until the Muslims destroy it.

One of the most wonderful digs in Asia Minor.
NOT Turkey-—but ARMENIA.
After the Armenian Genocide in 1915, where the muslim Turks slaughtered the Christian Armenians,
Turkey took large amounts of Armenian territory.
If you read any book printed before then, you will see that Mount Ararat is located in ARMENIA.
The entire article is a farce because the land and structures it is discussing are ARMENIAN land and structures.
The source of the article is Al Monitor.
Al-Monitor is a media site launched in February 2012 by [muslim] Jamal Daniel[1] and based in Washington, DC. Al-Monitor provides reporting and analysis from and about the Middle East through both original and translated content. The site has media partnerships with major news organizations from countries in the Middle East.[2] Among its media partners are El Khabar, Al-Masry Al-Youm, Azzaman, Calcalist, Yedioth Ahronoth, Al-Qabas, An-Nahar, As-Safir, Al-Hayat, Al-Iktissad Wal-Aamal, Habertürk, Milliyet, Radikal, Sabah, Taraf, Al Khaleej, and Al-Tagheer.

National Geographic had an excellent special on this site.
It came about BEFORE agriculture.
It turns all history on it's head.
Religion pre-dates agriculture.
Enormous.
these temples were not living quarters, but religious sites exclusively.
Man did not have to have time in great agricultural cities to develop religion.
It came FIRST.
Fascinating article.
