Karahan Tepe

What the Show Claims

• ›Ancient Astronaut Theorists suggest that Karahan Tepe's sophisticated engineering and megalithic construction, dating to over 11,000 years ago, may have been built by giants or non-human intelligences rather than by the humans of that era. The site displays engineering skills far beyond what the people of the time were thought capable of achieving.

What Archaeology Says

Karahan Tepe is a Pre-Pottery Neolithic A (PPNA) site discovered in southern Turkey, dating to approximately 9,500 BCE. Archaeological evidence shows it was built by hunter-gatherer communities and represents early monumental construction, though its exact purpose remains debated among scholars.
