Göbeklitepe, also known as "the zero point of human history" and "the birthplace of civilization," is the world's oldest and largest temple, with a 12,000-year history. Its discovery opened a new chapter in human history.
Göbeklitepe is 7,500 years older than the Egyptian pyramids and 7,000 years older than Stonehenge in England. Since 1995, excavations have revealed 20 temples at Göbeklitepe, but only 6 have been unearthed. Göbeklitepe, which was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in July 2018, is one of the most important heritages of the world, not only of Turkey but also of the world, as the world's oldest archaeological discovery.
