RE: Cradle of humankind surface workings

A very interesting article gavvet, I shall be following you.
It certainly makes you think what other artifacts could have been found had the mining not destroyed so much. It is not unheard of though - just look at this Construction company destroying a Belizean pyramid:

wow unbelievable... actually its not... destruction of sites happens all to often :(

Yes, it certainly does. It seems large corporations and companies think they have a right to destroy history for the sake of profit... just how can you put a price on the remains of a culture that has disappeared leaving only their finest feats of architecture. I find it unexceptable and shameful.

I am not sure if you would be interested, but I recently wrote an article on Gobekli Tepe (the oldest remains of civilisation) - I would love to get your opinions on the matter if you have the time, cheers Gavvet.
