One of the most important archæological digs in the world, Gobekli Tepe in Turkey has revolutionised our understanding of hunter-gatherer culture. But could it also be the site of the Garden of Eden?

That's terrific Pam

That's one of the best archeological stories I have read in a long time.
Love it.

There is another interesting story on the right hand side of the page, about how Victorians raised their children to know right from wrong by giving them an unhealthy fear of death.
They used to write stories for children focused on this.I know about some of those books,those being all we had to read in some convents I was in.
Even in my very young days I could see the sickness of focusing your entire life on the fear and adoration of God.
Makes me shudder now to think of it.

Your welcome, and thanks for the tip

I like the articles that come in with information on the most ancient sites. I have posted news links before on Gobekli Tepe, seems like a great topic to me.

I had not read the other article you mentioned so I'm going to go back and check that out. Thanks shadows for pointing it out.
