Göbekli Tepe traditions built on a long line of building experiments. There are also earlier stone structures and undoubtably myriads of rotten and lost wooden temples.
- wyattpeak 7y agoI think "line of experiments" lends too much forethought and connectedness to these things. It certainly exists within a context of increasing sophistication in human architecture, but it was built more than ten thousand years after the site in the article. Assuming the builders are related at all, there wouldn't even be vague cultural memory extending back that far.
- singularity2001 7y agoThese are certainly different branches on the human development tree, So I agree that there wouldn’t be any vague memory of the specific site. If there was any memory it was in the form of habits just like stone making techniques persisted for tens of thousands of years
