To date, the most ancient bag-looking artifacts came from the famous neolithic site - Göbekli Tepe in Turkey. This enigmatic site is almost 12,000 years old. Its discovery completely changed the paradigm of our thoughts on the neolithic era, and the life and capabilities of our ancestors at that time.
Previously we were taught that pre-pottery neolithic people were nomadic hunter-gatherers who didn’t build permanent structures. But now we know that is not true. They actually constructed impressive large-scale megalithic buildings at many locations, with Göbekli Tepe being the most well-known.
Among its oval enclosures there are multiple T-shaped stone pillars. Some of them are 18’ or 5.5 m tall. On one of the pillars, Pillar 43, it depicts three bag-like reliefs along with animals and patterns. These puzzling carvings have sparked all kinds of speculations.
My opinion is: in order to make a logical and convincing argument on what the bag-like objects might be, we can’t simply pigeon-hole and focus on the specific carvings on a single pillar. Let’s keep in mind that there are a variety of reliefs on numerous pillars at Göbekli Tepe. The one with the bag design - Pillar 43 is a surrounding pillar, not a center pillar of one of the oval enclosures; and this enclosure is one of over 20 similar stone circles. This pillar itself might have substantial meanings but its location indicates that it is a part of the narrative of all the carvings in its Enclosure D and likely inter-connected with other contemporaneous oval structures. Therefore, we need to look at these artful decorations at Göbekli Tepe as a coherent story and not just fixate on a partial carving on one pillar. There must be contextual relationships with these carvings and buildings.
To study this, we should learn the facts from archaeological excavations. Most if not all current theories of the meanings and functions of Göbekli Tepe “bags” were based on initial excavation results. However, in the last few years there have been striking changes. New artifacts and findings have overturned many earlier beliefs about this site. These findings surprised archeologists; and further challenged the old thoughts on the neolithic age. In this video I’ll show you some of the most exciting novel discoveries of Göbekli Tepe - such information will help us to better understand this prehistoric marvel and thereby get closer to the truth about the intriguing carvings including the “handbag” patterns.
