PSYCHOLOGY and the ORIGIN OF CIVILIZATION Illustrated. What are the secrets of Gobekli that archeologists have missed? Psychology blends with archeology to investigate the purpose of Gobekli, the origin of it as a center of trade, the secret of how "wild" animals are tamed, and the evidence of the earliest and longest-lasting religion in history. Gobekli Tepe was built six thousand years before Stonehenge. Organic matter, found in the mud plaster of the walls, was radio-carbon dated at 11,500 years ago. It quickly became the greatest mystery of modern archeology. When archeologist Klaus Schmidt did his great work unearthing Gobekli Tepe, he declared it to be a complex of stone temples built by Hunter-Gathers. >IMPRINTING AS THE KEY TO PRE-AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY Taming wild animals is easy, if you catch them as babies. Changing their genes to make them look like "domesticated" animals would have taken hundreds of years of herding in corrals to select the cute ones into such a dramatic genetic change. It is a mistake to assume that domestication of animals had to wait until the large aurochs had been artificially selected by humans into becoming the smaller modern "domesticated" cows before our ancestors made use of them. More likely, they had been herding wild animals for hundreds of years before any genetic changes were selected that would lead to what we call "domesticated". All of these, the boars, gazelles, goats, ducks, aurochs, etc. might be misinterpreted by today's archeologists as "wild" animals when they found their bones; indicating that the sites around Gobekli were peopled by Hunter-Gatherers. Instead, these remains may be evidence of people raising wild animals to feed the village. "Wild" does not mean they were hunted. More people are killed by water buffalo in Southeast Asia, than any other species, yet when raised from birth, they become gentle farm animals, even pets. HERDING ANIMALS WOULD HAVE BEEN ESSENTIAL BEFORE FARMING > What Psychology tells us about the findings at Gobekli I: GOBEKLI TEPE: World's First Civilization? Temple or Trade?
