Thank you for posting this fascinating lecture . I am a retired tradesman and grandfather who lives at the far end of the United States. I will probably never have a chance to visit your wonderful museum, but these types of videos give me an opportunity to share in the incredible wealth of knowledge your organization has collected. I want to give the Penn Museum a heartfelt thank you for posting this, and other lectures and presentations. Keep up the great work!

I would make one suggestion. the person filming should zoom in tighter on the screen so that you can see what he is pointing to and talking about. at this distance you can't tell what the finer points are.

It's sad to see all of this fascinating material dismissed by people because of some misplaced overreaction to a shorthand phrase in the title. All they mean by "ancient Turkey" is the place that's now called Turkey, in ancient times. That's it. I'm sure that the archaeologists excavating sites like Troy are perfectly well aware of the complex history of this place, including the many peoples that have lived there and the many empires that have ruled there. If an archaeologist says she is working on "ancient North America," that doesn't mean she thinks the place was called "America" or was populated by Europeans in pre-Columbian times! -- I'm all for skepticism, but there's a big difference between intelligent skepticism and stupid skepticism.

Fantastic overview, and well presented and delivered. I wish I knew of all this sooner and when I still could see to travel and enjoy the history. This was almost as good as being there, thank you.

Thank you for all the Beautiful Art and so much more History barely mentioned today to the Public, i have so many questions, Thank you for sharing and especially all the hard work.

Years ago a woman who was a very early paleoanthropologist proposed a two to three thousand year period between hunter-gatherer and agriculture. This period consisted of corralling animals seasonally and culling them and weeding areas rich in food giving plants thus creating gardens and mixed orchards which later formed sacred groves. She also pointed out that in many areas hunting continued (in some places to the early modern period). This notion of a big switch between hunter-gatherers and cultivators and pastoralists is too blunt, too simplistic. There was great variety in modes of transition.

thank you for posting this lecture. it would be interesting if you did an out of place artifacts display. it would draw large crowds. i would be willing to travel from ohio to see such a presentation.

Love these lectures from Penn!

Lots of intrigue and fascinating insights into what was truly a nexus for human and western cultural history and development. The depth of knowledge by the presenter is, by way of an understatement, impressive. My only wish would be to able to see the slide show "close up". I kept staining to see the details which I'm sure were incredibly interesting.

This is a lecture about sites that exist in an area we now call Turkey. It is not saying that it is the same people who are there today. However the comment section is full of people who seem to have problems understanding that.

Thank you for this interesting overview. Of course, more than half of the comments are modern political rants, denunciations of science, or wrath against the phrase "ancient Turkey".

Takes me back to uni lectures and sitting at the back of lecture theatre, peering down to see the images.

I was watching a KZread about the sea people and this individual had to complain about how the author used BC. Some people are just looking to argue instead of really focusing on the actual content of the video. So much to learn from these videos, so I will in the future ignore divisive comments. I told this commentor to stop with the trivial and learn. Same here!

I love this information. Fascinating. I will never see these myself, unless I hit the lottery, so I very much appreciate and enjoy these videos, and Ancient Aliens as well. It might not all be the truth, but that is up to us to discern and establish for ourselves. Great information! Thank you Penn!

I love going over to the Penn Museum, they always have something fascinating going on. The archeology students and Profs. are great when you have questions, they truly love what they're doing. Today they have a tour exploring ancient foods, that's gonna be a pretty cool afternoon, the food is vastly different from the crap available to us now, I love attempting to reproduce it, my wife not so much!! If you are fairly close and have never been there, I highly recommend it, It's a great family outing. Thank you so much for posting this lecture, very informative and totally captivates my young son, that says a lot!

Neat ! Thanks !

Thank you for sharing us with this amazing and wonderful lecture. it is interesting to see such types of discoveries in the ancient place of Turkey. Actually, I am from Ethiopia and when I heard this it creates something in mind what an interesting site is it? hopefully, we are waiting to come up with other new discoveries within the site.

Love it all ,I want to see it all..

Would love to visit Gobekli Tepe, so many unanswered questions about early agricultural life.

Is Gobekli Tepe really 5000 years older than Stonehenge, or is it a hint that the dating of other megalithic period architecture needs to be reconsidered? For example, Inca and Egyptian additions to megalithic foundations seem to indicate that enough time passed to cause complete societal amnesia in building techniques. The additions are incredibly more primitive than the foundations, and world-wide, the megaliths seem more related to each other than to succeeding cultures.

@histguy101

5 жыл бұрын

By that logic, Gobekli Tepe could be dated wrong. Is it dated by Strata? There's certainly no pottery down there. Some archeologists have argued for an 8,000bc date, which would make it about 10,000 years old.

Odd camera angle!

Fanx.

the pleasure is all in my mind

on top of the T pillars at Gobeleki are numerous cup-shaped indentations, almost nobody will talk about them or show you a picture.

The problem with "mainstream" theories is that they are just theories.

The throne @ 18:28 time that is labelled Assyrian looks a lot like the one used today for coronation.... No joke could be David's throne on pic.

I would be interested in seeing what is under these monuments as many were built over the top of older structures. It is interesting also to note that a matriarchal rule which is said to have been very bloody, should be included in interpretations as some of the monumental reliefs almost certainly appear to discuss matriarchal/patriarchal war and the beginning of patriarchal rule and denigration of women.

There was an ancient Anatolia but not an ancient Turkiye. The Turkish incursion did not began until after the Battle of Manzikert 1071 AD. I know that you know this!

If you're looking for a good explanation of Göbekli Tepe and not this, search for Peters & Schimdt work of 2004: 'Animals in the symbolic world of Pre-Pottery Neolithic Göbekli Tepe, south-eastern Turkey: a preliminary assessment'. It's online in Scholar Google and it's the best on the subject. IMO, of course.

Very, Very interesting even if the lecturer is a little arrogant. And actually lots of people have put Eden near Gobekli Tepe, also, there is no reason the story could not be interpreted as a metaphor for transition from hunter gather to farming.

...and the documentary immediately following this on autoplay is "Scientists Baffled-New Discoveries-Darwinian Evolution Crumbling-Scientists Abandon Theory" :)

This is where Noah Shem ham and japheth started planting after the flood. The Ark only settle a little ways away at Mount Ararat right by there

Yes, there should a clarification at the beginning discussing all the ancient civilizations that contributed to these ruins. Have been to some of these ruins 38 years ago and loved it. During this time Jews lived here due to the diaspora caused by many conquering armies. Many peoples. The country of Turkey has many fascinating cultures that preceded the current boundary lines. It does sound a little like the British taking claim to the artifacts of North America.

Thank you for an exciting lecture. It seems rather worrrying that so much plundering (including GobekliT.!!!) is going on. It seems that the whole idea of excavating any worthwhile site is questionable since so little effort is made to preserve the results. (The same, or worse, goes for clay structures excavated - notably in MARI - to be left to disintegrate "regrettably" in rains...). BTW - Perhaps it is worthwhile to mention that Aphrodisia was in its time a major centre for mass production of sculptures in excellent quality marble from the local quarries. They we apparently shipping their produce appreciated for high quality execution to all corners of the Roman Empire. They specialized in busts of dynastic personages - a dynamic market to say the least, with ever so often changing imperial set-ups, and avid public of wealthy citizens eager to have the latest to show off at home.

the ditch Discovery troy 6 could have been a ditch to place the foundation of a much larger wall. If if one travels to countries like Mexico and third world countries you will notice that when they begin to lay the foundation of a home they dig trenches in order to lay down the foundation of the home. I believe that this is the same example we are seeing here. I believe once more that that was a dish that would allow the Trojans to place a massive base for a massive wall

@ Carol Geard _ Well, it seems tempting to think that whoever lived before our times must have been primitive, animistic etc. The further in the past, the more so. Possibly our idea of "progress" is constructed as a self-fulfilling train of thought: all religions "evolve" up to the elevated form of monotheism, all technologies peak at steam-and-electricity, atomic energy gives us divine powers etc. Yet, when you try reading e.g. rather "old" Sumerian texts, or Babylonian poetry, you will see that their mind-set was hardly different from ours, and their life styles were not lacking in terms of convinience, affluence, or sophistication. Moreover, there still seems to linger an idea that they had access to knowledge (and possibly technologies) yet unmatched by us. The time may tell; but things seem to be changing even now.
