Let me show you ancient sites in Türkiye older than Gobeklitepe & Karahantepe
These sites show that building styles & techniques gradually became better over time, starting with more crude Cakmaktepe and resulting in the elaborate Karahantepe & Gobeklitepe

Akhenaten & Nefertiti uprooted the lives of the ancient Egyptians by changing their polytheistic religion into a monotheistic religion, worshipping only one God The Aten
Did the people of ancient Egypt destroy their mummies, not granting them an afterlife?

When researchers first came across fossilized human remains at Jebel Irhoud in Morocco, they assumed that these remains belonged to Neanderthals.
But after they conducted more research, they realized they belonged to the oldest Homo sapiens ever discovered

I have more than 300 videos on my youtube channel.

Took me almost 5.5 years of hard work, blood, sweat, tears, sleepless nights, imposter syndrome, doubting myself, and now a sense of pride.

I did this, I did this all by myself💪

Neanderthal footprints were discovered at 2 separate locations in the Algarve region of Portugal, dating back to 82,000 and 78,000 years ago.
These footprints were left by children, a toddler, and an adult male, who were most likely hunting a red deer.

Neanderthals honed their survival skills.
Able to organize their group, strategize planned hunts, & transport carcasses to their fat factory.
They would smash the marrow rich bones with stone hammers, boiling them for several hours to extract the fat.

No worries, I thought Magdalenian was 17,000 - 12,000 too.. but when I looked into it I was surprised to see it was 23,000-12,000. I will make a video in the future about the Magdalenian culture and look into it

Let's look at a discovery from France & Spain, where researchers found the oldest whale bone tools, dating back to 20,000 years ago.
These tools were created by the Magdalenian culture, who lived in Western Europe between 23,000 and 12,000 years ago.
