GoKawiilNew study disputes 'skull cult' theory at Göbekli Tepe
Researchers re-examined carved and modified human skulls found at the 10,000-year-old Göbekli Tepe site in Turkey, previously interpreted as evidence of a ritualistic 'skull cult.' The new analysis concludes that explanation doesn't hold up, though it confirms Neolithic communities there had a notable interest in human skulls for other reasons.
