Description
What is the earliest temple complex on Earth? Who built it? Is it really 7000 years older than Stonehenge and the Pyramids? How did such a sophisticated civilisation evade detection for so long?
In this groundbreaking little book, packed with original research and illustrations, megalithomaniac Hugh Newman tells the story of Göbekli Tepe, Karahan Tepe, Nevali Çori and other temples in Turkey, which are so old that their very existence challenges history as we know it.
Göbekli Tepe and Karahan Tepe offers a fascinating insight into these ancient wonders that have remained hidden from our understanding for centuries.
