>Hancock's biggest X is Göbekli Tepe in Turkey, with its megalithic, T-shaped seven- to 10-ton stone pillars cut and hauled from limestone quarries and dated to around 11,000 years ago, when humans lived as hunter-gatherers without, presumably, the know-how, skills and labor to produce them. >This sounds romantic, but it is the bigotry of low expectations. Who is to say what hunter-gatherers are or are not capable of doing? Thats a great argument, if they could back it up. Perhaps SA should mount an effort to reproduce Gobekli using tools of the stone age. Id like to see them just move a 10 ton block. Until then its just hand-wavy dismissal and use of the 'bigot' card. not exactly solid reasoning. just an opinion of course.
