Went to Göbekli Tepe recently, the oldest temple discovered so far; it was built about 12000 years ago, you could probably find many videos online of it, but nothing beats seeing it in person - it's literally in the middle of nowhere, seeing everywhere yet without being seen from afar, super smart! ( there are still other areas waiting to be excavated )

And one of the interesting things I have learned is that ppl used to use it to gather together to exchange goods, even marriage 👀 not just being a temple; I was getting lost a bit in history last week, too much to learn...

Amazing, it's mind-blowing how old this place is and how little we know about their culture.

Hear a lot about Göbekli Tepe.

How's the energy there?

How does it feel?

Currently hot and dry, really impressive how they built it and the choice of the location, in the middle of nowhere but overseeing everywhere yet without being seen - it almost feels like it should be invited only, otherwise how could one know?

I have to make my way there somehow.

Thanks for the report. Cheers.

feel free to ask me tips on how to get there once you are around:)

How will I recognize you, though?

I mean @. me here 😂

I know, I know.

LOL.
