Researchers have discovered part of the mystery behind the construction of the earliest known temple in human history.
The Göbekli Tepe complex in southeastern Anatolia, Turkey, is a 11,500-year-old stone structure that predates Stonehenge, according to a news release. The researchers used a computer algorithm to trace the architectural design, especially three of the complex's monumental round structures, to determine that the pillars were placed in their particular positions on purpose.

Ping
Can I ask a practical question at this point? Are we gonna do Stonehenge tomorrow?
No‼ Were not gonna &%@‼in do Stoneenge‼
“May?”
Seriously...this is News to CNN?
I do not, for one, think that the problem was that the band was down. I think that the problem may have been that there was a Stonehenge monument on the stage that was in danger of being crushed by a dwarf! All right? That tended to understate the hugeness of the object.
I really think youre just making much too big a thing out of it.
Making a big thing out of it would have been a good idea!

Wait...what??!! They were not just randomly placed?
SMH! Whodathunk?
Jeers and sneers for that breathless report-ahge.
This is nothing but psychobabble. The writer clearly pretending to know more than she does, and thinks that she's disguising her ignorance. She's not.
“The Göbekli Tepe complex in southeastern Anatolia, Turkey,”
That was in ARMENIA
until the Armenian genocide by the Turks in 1915
where the muslim Turks slaughtered the Christian Armenians and took much of their land.
Thanks nickcarraway.

Com'on, now; this is CNN. They only got the date wrong by a little over 5 thousand years!

I doubt thick it was 16 thousand years old.
