Garden of Eden found?

Do these mysterious stones mark the site of the Garden of Eden? | Mail Online

That's some interesting stuff there. It seems that of all the "horrors" religion has brought on to the world, farming is among them. Golly!

Archaeological evidence suggests that victims were killed in huge death pits, children were buried alive in jars, others roasted in vast bronze bowls.

These are almost incomprehensible acts, unless you understand that the people had learned to fear their gods, having been cast out of paradise. So they sought to propitiate the angry heavens.
Religion causes nothing but death!

WOW.... that is incredible. Turkey is like an archaeological hot bed. The Garden of Eden thingy is cute... whatever helps to get more funding.

The story itself is complete garbage and whoever wrote it has no understanding of archaeology or anthropology. Just look at the pictures and DON'T READ ANYTHING.

Not to be a douche, but they've "found" the Garden of Eden like ten times now, and there's really no reason to believe that this would be it; he might as well have claimed to have found Castle Grayskull. I also notice his personal, unorthodox, reading of Genesis coincides extremely well with this discovery .

It's a cool enough find in itself without trapping it up in Biblical BS, but whatever is needed to get publicity and funding I guess..

Eden's gone. Get over it already. Thousands of years and still whining about it, jesus christ guys.

We ate an apple and realized women have breasts. Make the best of it.

Regardless of what it may or may not be/have been, it's pretty cool these have been found.

"That means it was built around 10,000BC. By comparison, Stonehenge was built in 3,000 BC and the pyramids of Giza in 2,500 BC."

The archaeologist working on it must have been shit-their-pants excited.

--And another thing, if this site has been around for 15 years you'd think it would be integrated a little more into mainstream 'awareness'/school. Granted it's been a few years since I took any courses that would cover this, I'm just a little surprised considering the apparent importance. Anyone had any history/anthro and learned about this?

10,000 years? So it predates the creation of earth by 4000 years.

many archaeological sites are kept hush hush due to fears of looting.

also, you would depend on archaeological research, so if none has been done no one could say anything other than... look, some cool stones. the only reason you even heard about this is because some retard said "omg garden of eden blargh" and it gets blasted on the front page.

and looters are always searching for archaeological sites. if they find it, they'll pick it clean and the stuff will be auctioned off at Sotheby's to some fat white or japanese man and the public will never know.

as soon as stuff like this gets out, looters are all over these sites like flies on shit. the country has to be prepared not only for security, but to fund excavation.

some stuff you HAVEN'T heard about: right now archaeologists are surveying the largest Mayan city ever discovered. It is so big, all of Tikal could fit in a subsection. I spoke with one of the archaeologists and he said the vegetation is so thick it took them weeks to find a main temple, and they had been camped in front of it the entire time. of course, rebels and druglords are now hiding in the same jungle, and will probably start looting everything and/or destroy it for kicks.

and then you have the pre-Inca civilization pyramids in Peru excavated in the 80's. It was a south american version of king tuts tomb.
