The Gobekli Tepe Enigma 

I like how the discovery of this site upended what was accepted about ancient history.

One major issue with these videos. They are never long enough! I love your take on everything ancient. Never stop following your path ✌️😎

My Buddy's father from Edinburgh was one of the first Archaeologists to work on the site . His first and last book written at 83 years old is coming out soon . "BEING NEOLITHIC" . ENJOY in JOY

Good to see you had Special Agent Denozo on the case, lol, Love your work.

It's a fascinating site, thanks for the video! Also, did anyone else catch the Michael Weatherly cameo around 4:36?

Was that the actor Michael Weatherly, formally of TV show NCIS?

Why have they stopped excavating the rest of the site? Why have they planted trees where more locations are to be explored, why have they concreted unexplored areas with pathways and why have the World Economic forum taken charge of the site. We are being hoodwinked again.

I cannot help feeling that you have a lot more to say about all of these wondrous things that you make videos about, especially this one. When will we see your first book? Your videos are a breath of fresh air. Thank you. Ted

Oh wow! Must have been so exciting when you noticed that gate post pillar! The first time I saw pictures of Gobleki Tepe the way the enclosures or “rooms” kind of honeycombed off each other reminded me of a school. What a fascinating site!

You are just the sweetest little thing. Absolutely can't get enough of your adventures. 👁️👍

Great to have a new vid Jahanna - you have a gift for this, as well as acting

That Indianna Jones T shirt made me grin !

Excellent Video Jahannah. Keep asking questions. My gut has been telling me for decades that there is an active agenda to keep us from discovering our true origins and stopping us from putting the puzzle pieces of our distant past together.

I loooooove this so much. I have never seen some of those angles and images. Gobekli Tepe is one of my very favorite ancient sites. Thank you so much!!!!

I love your presentation style, your excitement makes me excited to learn more. Keep up the great work. A fan from Canada

Have you ever heard of the Latte Stones of the Mariana Islands? They were made with scoop divots and groves on the top to help keep the bamboo poles in place that were used as roof scaffolding and milling machine support, see link below. They remind me very much of the Gobekli Tepe T pillars. The Latte stones are only supposed to be 1000 years old, but the archeologist I spoke with said they were much older, maybe 5000 years. The latte Stones and the rai stones, stone money, of yap formed a machine for milling out canoes, proa, from huge palm trunks. The milling bits, coral stones, could also be used as sling stones because they became smooth after being used as milling bits. The machine looked like an upside-down potter's wheel with the milling bit stuck in a bamboo pole at the bottom that rotated with the turn of the stone wheel. The Rai stone was the fly wheel. The archeologist who told me all this also told me that the original inhabitants of the Marianas islands and Yap were part of the same culture 4000 years ago. I can't find a picture of the milling machine assembled on top of the Latte stones, but I could draw a crude approximation. By the way, the milling machine theory is the only one that fits all the facts of how large canoes that could carry 40 people were made. Every other method falls short of explaining how they could do that. www.amusingplanet.com/2015/12/the-latte-stones-of-mariana-islands.html en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rai_stones www.guampedia.com/slingstones/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proa

Great video. Love your enthusiasm and excellent commentary.

so we are not mentioning that there was MICHAEL WEATHERLY from NCIS with you on this tour?? :D OMG! He is interested in this topic, I love that so much! also..great video as usual JJ!! I really need to visit this place too. ❤

Hey Jahannah great video and what a great day indeed. I miss the trip and the experience desperately. Congratulations on another wonderful production. Bravo. 🙏

Jahannah, thank you for all you do. You've answered some questions I had and showed some new stuff. Love it.

There’s likely thousands of T Pillars incorporated into structures, walls, even foundation and fill throughout the region.

Great find on the gate pillar! I just watched something where there were similar scoops on top of pillars in and also earthquake prone area and it was said that it likely was to allow the roof to move in earthquakes by putting round stones into them - like they put under posts these days so that buildings can move during earthquakes rather than falling over or collapsing.

I was there just a month ago :) Visted both Gobekli and Karahan Tepe which is just 1 hour drive from Gobekli tepe...

The singing in the background, as the lady speaking, gave me chills

Hell yes! So excited Johanna

NCIS is on the job!

My thoughts on the dimples on the top of the cut stone could've been for setting rounded river rocks, or stones which would help keep the timbers in place more than a flat surface would. Also, love watching your video's, very insightful and love to hear your British accent, alway brings a smile to my face. Just wondering if you've done any research on the lost twelve tribe's of Israel and where we Caucasian people come from, pretty awesome rabbit hole to dive into, seems England has way more info on the subject than here in America/Amerigo. Anyways, keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing more of your journey's....

I’m confident that Gobekli Tempe was a 7-11 that people went to for food and constantly complained about stale hotdog buns and burnt coffee.

This was so cool!! Thank you for sharing your journey with us! Gobekli Tepi is very interesting indeed!!

So happy to see a new video from you, I've missed your enthusiasm!

9:56 'Look mate, the wood's not cutting it' - Megalithic Builder, 13000 BC

Brilliant Miss J! One observation: the 'pits' on the tops of some of the megaliths, regardless if the site was buried intentionally or through natural erosion, points to the possibility of water erosion of the stone over 10K years or more as the very tops of many of the megaliths were quite close to the surface. This type of erosion can be caused by wind, water, or even water-ice. Imagine rolling a confined pebble round and round on a flat stone for thousands of years. I know it's not the sexiest theory, however it is the most plausible. Stellar work you Rebel! ✌️❤️🚀🤠

Was that the actor Michael wheatherly of NCIS and bull fame stood aside while that gobekli tepe "theorist" was saying his piece? It certainly looked like him.

Great stuff. I've known about Gobekli Tepe for years but have never seen it shown this clearly until this video

Repetitive loading of a roof might explain the cup/dish shapes on top of the pillars. As simple wind pushes down on the roof, this leads to loading pressure.

I'm proud of your find also. Excellent archeological eye girl!! You're a natural!! Much love from Massachusetts ❤️🇺🇸

Wow ... the now formally proclaimed "Johanna Pillar" of Gobekli Tepe. Well done mate!!! 😂🎉

Wow. I guess it's been a few months since I checked in here. Holy improved production! You've done a bang up job. (Is that what you guys say? I'm Floridian)

Takes some skill to spot those carvings on that 'gate pillar'. I think you can def call yourself 'EagleEye' Jahanna now. :D greetz from Germany!

I visited Göbekli Tepe back in 2011. It was before the protective was installed. It was amazing, but there's been so much more discovered since then. I live in Türkiye now, so I'll definitely need to plan another visit. Thanks for all your intriguing work.

Even though you were not the first, it’s great that you have the ability and eye to see ancient works and recognize them! Good job lady!👏👏

The indents on the top of the pillars: imagine them sunken into the landscape, covered almost entirely with doil, until only say 1 metre sticks out. It has been used for thousands of years by other people for grinding, cracking nuts, etc. Or, it has been used as a sound generator. I believe I saw a short video about one of these sound stones just this week somewhere.

Just remember that 95% of gobekli tepe is still buried and then theres karahan tepe which is twice as large as gobekli tepe and older, also they have found 10 more buried sites in the area as well which means that there might be more than 500x more stuff buried than the currently excavated part of gobekli tepe.

“You're an interesting species. An interesting mix. You're capable of such beautiful dreams, and such horrible nightmares. You feel so lost, so cut off, so alone, only you're not. See, in all our searching,the only thing we've found that makes the emptiness bearable, is each other.”

This is like the 12th story of yours that I watched and I've come to realize something. I am totally in love with you and your accent and have no idea what to do know. 😂❤❤❤

I went last year and it’s incredible. It’s mad to think of how much is still being excavated.

Did you get Michael Weatherly from NCIS fame autograph 👍👍👍

The scoops on top of the pillars remind me of what we do with clay when when we need it to stick to something - we create texture. If they were placing something on top with a clay or mud like substance then the scoops would help it stay in place hmm 🤔 Also it was really nice to hear a woman speak about this site. Ive seen so many takes from men who are always so quick to claim everything is phallic and therefore must be about fertility. It was nice to hear some other views :)

Awesome video, as always. Thank you.

All across the middle east there are buried T-pillar type structures that often are found to have been purposefully filled in with sand. I think when the Nephilim, dinosaurs, and large carnivorous animals would have been unable to dig up and penetrate the fortified structures. The T creates an anti-uplift device much like how beavers build their dams to make it nearly impossible for bears and wolves to penetrate. If the structures were going to be vacant and to prevent pests from taking over, I believe the strongholds were filled in to prevent snakes, spiders, and pests from inhabiting them. The T shaped pillar is an excellent multi purpose device to hold up a roof, prevent the roof from being lifted up either from high winds, earthquakes, or attack from predators. I also think that many of the structures were also built to align with the star calendar and likely had small windows or skylights that aligned with the north star, moon, and sun solstices.

She is so keen on details, I want to go on a tour with her!

No matter how likely, it's still possible the Younger Dryas comet impact theory still coincides with the 12,000 year magnetic excursion event. Either both or either would still have been catastrophic.

It's clear as day that looking from above these sites (Gobekli, Karahan etc) are the foundations for some sort of mega structure.

been looking for a rolling tool carrier- Sterling Pacific might be the ticket!!! Thanks Johanna!!! ❤️🇺🇸 Holy cow!! for that price it should come with the tools!!

My guess for the indents on top of the stones is that they were pivot points. The stones probably were moved with the mass of the weight closest to the ground. Using small stones to pivot the piece in place. Once the piece was where they wanted it, they then could tilt the piece up, plumb it the best they could and move on. Several masons worked on this site when it was created. The craftsmanship varies from tier to tier.

Keep up the good work. Love your videos.

Resort, undoubtedly! great work!

What intrigues me is that the site may date back nearly 10,000 years...but how many thousands of years passed BEFORE they got to that moment in time. How did they evolve their knowledge and culture to get to a point where they could create these structures?

There is so much in those hills around Sanliurfa in Turkey as I'm sure you know everywhere you look someone years ago has done some stone work it is a very early part of the civilized population of our planet Armenia , Syria , Lebanon , Jordan , Iraq all have similar things and how long ago we really don't know but much older than we thought . I did have the pleasure of going to Lebanon Baalbek of course after seeing Gobekli Tepe and Karahan Tepe and did some hikes to ruins that are really unknown but similar craftsman ship out of limestone ans hard Basalt such an amazing part of our history on this earth . Love your work Jahannah this is very addicting and you have been to some awesome places I'v done a few and there is nothing like being there in person 🙂🤙

Things keep getting older. I’m sure at some point some new discovery will emerge that’ll have historians scrabbling to explain, which is entertaining in itself. Modern humans have been around for a long time and we tend to get busy left to our own devises.

Thank you for sharing this! You are my new favorite person to watch. I heard about this on Netflix Ancient Apocalypse and have been Infatuated with history like you! I just will never have the pleasure to travel to see such places!

Nice one jannah great vid. Chapeau for spotting that head blown.. 😊

Is that Michael Weatherly? Dude, you went to Gobekli Tepe with DiNozzo!

Brilliant! Anyone doing work on sonic relationships and correspondent frequencies, octaves and such will find 136.2Hz or C# of great use. Great work! Cheers

Perhaps the divots on the T - tops, were from overhead strikes with percussion sticks or bats, causing the stones to ring at certain inherent resonant frequencies particular to each stone... heck, they might have had entire orchestral arrangements set in every pit area, together with stringed instruments like ancient lutes or such, flutes and ram's horns... and then with the choir's songs ranging through tenor to soprano, during their hymn ceremonies... Sing to a stone, and never alone.

Thanks for an interesting video, and I really liked that suitcase!

We have to guess at so much about what this and other sites mean. Bit by bit the pieces of our long lost forgotten history are surfacing, thanks to wonderfl people like you Jahannah. You follow your own path of discovery, but so many of us follow as you lead our way. It means so much that you do.

Thank you for this closer look. Loved your excitement and enthusiasm. Great job.

I just discovered you’ve been missing from my feed for 11 months!! I’m glad I figured it out, I thought you were too busy for us 😃💗

I love your work JJ! Please bring me with you on your next adventure!?😊😜

THAT was Michael Weatherly! One of my faves! Of course, Jahannah, you're my real fave...but, that's Tony!

Wow how cool was your group with Michael Weatherly in it !!!!🙌🏻🙌🏻

Great bit of prehistory very interesting, bears, and other animals were kept as pets, used for hunting and also, logically eaten when not hibernating.

Perhaps the indentations on the pillar tops were where stones were set to hold covering like leather or cloth

SCOOP THEORY: The Top Scoops, on the T-Pillars, seem to be a rough way of interlocking a Ceiling structure. Possibly, a ceiling was carved in an opposie relief or even a "Self Forming" mudbrick, to create a more stable, non-skid, roof

Heyyyyyy your back. So miss your madcap style. Please churn out more vids. Even if just sitting and chatting. Your hilarious. Great work.

If anyone could sufficiently crack the 'hands across abdomen' symbolism that so many cultures worldwide share from Turkey, to Easter Island to Indonesia, without relying on the tired old fertility charm theory, we'd probably be staring at the world-traveling Atlantean culture between the eyes.

U have wonderful content and personality... I love watching it videos and have many aligned theories. . I would love to see u produce some longer videos...

You lucky lass,heard the other just beside are larger,.luv your work ,🎉🎉

I am so glad I get to you do this!!

RU-vid recommended this video to me after I watched, "Göbekli Tepe and the Prophecy of Pillar 43" from The Why Files. This place just gets more and more fascinating.

The way they covered the site implies that they are not playing to go any deeper, with only 15% uncovered leave a lot of unanswered questions, 1 artifact can change everything.

Loving your work and presentation. New Zealand ❤

Whoa thats wild. The scoop marks looks similar to the scoop marks on the u finished obelisk. I have always been Fascinated by what they could of used to create those marks

It's such a shame I have only just discovered you JJ. I wish I could have come on your latest tour. Next time maybe?!! I'm really enjoying watching your back catalogue of videos.

The dog house looks like a deliberate water outlet to me. It may have filled on certain occasions that was significant at the time. Maybe the first springs after a drought season

Super awesome! Can't wait!

I so enjoy your videos and your research, keep up the good work. The builders seemed to like circles within circles. Would of like to see it when it was finished

Thats such a cool site, hopefully they find a lot more.. Also was the guy from NCIS in your video? definitely looked like him lol

I thank you for sharing this and your thoughts on it with us. And I admire your unquenchable thirst for the truth about our history. ❤

You go girl! Keep up the incredible work!

I love your channel so much. I've watched every video and always looking forward to more. So well done!

Love gobleci tepe , prooves that humanity is built on a foundation of lies Time to change our historical view of planet earth and the part we have to play while we visit ❤

And just imagine.. There are over a handful of other structures just like this very near by - discovered/mapped - just not excavated yet.. What an awesome and unforgettable experience! 🤘👽 Sam -

I haven't watched the video yet. Just wanted to say that suitcase looks fantastic. Good sponsor

Wow ! I'm well jell 🤓Well done for finding that post. This is most defiantly a site I hope to visit.. Wow! I'm dead proud of youuu 👏👏👏👏👏Our UK gall👏👏👏👏💗

Actor that play Tony in NCIS standing there watching the pillars 3:14, cool.

One of those guys looks like Tony DeNoseo from NCIS ,lol, brilliant video Jahannah, 🎉🎉

I love how much you love this site!

I find it interesting that they had enough time to bury the complex before the younger dryas deluge to preserve it. ❤
