| Göbekli Tepe, located in southeastern Turkey, features ancient megalithic pillars arranged in circular formations. The limestone pillars, some over 5 meters tall, are intricately carved with animal motifs and abstract symbols. Constructed during the Pre-Pottery Neolithic period, this site is considered one of the oldest known temples in the world, dating back to around 9600 BCE. The site is partially buried, with visible excavation areas showing the extensive stonework. Visitors present suggest its status as an archaeological and historical attraction. |
