From the Göbekli Tepe Research Project

This little piggy… was newly discovered in Building D!

As many of you may have already heard, our excavations in Special Building D this year turned up the remarkable statue of a wild boar. Unfortunately, the social media is very fast, and our discovery has already been posted and shared thousands of times on various platforms. But just so you know, the official press release of the Göbekli Tepe research team, together with a few more images, can be found here:

    Merhaba . Çalışmalar devam ediyor mu yoksa söylentiler doğru mu ? Çalışmaların durdurulduğu ve zeytin ağaçlarının dikildiği bilgisi doğru mu ?
