There is an outstanding Neolithic site 9 mi. north of Sanliurfa in southeastern Turkey. The finds at this site include 18 ft. tall limestone standing stones with carved images of animals on them—from 9,600 BC. I have posted some images of this site on my blog.
We will visit Göbekli Tepe on October 13, 2024, on our Exploring Biblical Anatolia and Southeastern Turkey tour.
