Have you heard the Gobeklitepe where is in Sanliurfa, Turkey? The home of the world’s first and oldest temple with many secrets still unrevealed. Gobeklitepe; especially in recent years, a very historical site that becomes more and more popular among travellers. The home of the world’s first and oldest temple, Gobeklitepe is now online at the 2nd Turkish show of Netflix, The Gift (Atiye in Turkish). As you can watch from the trailer this new series main focus is the Gobeklitepe and its history. Famous Turkish actress Beren Saat and actor Mehmet Gunsur are the stars of the series. I’m strongly suggesting you watch the first season of this series before you visit Gobeklitepe. You can check the table below to take a look at all the information you will read on this post.

The production of early alcoholic beverages

Investigations and research have revealed signs of fermentation on wheat samples found in Göbeklitepe. At the same time, the equipment found around the temple ruins could have been used for brewing beer. Some scientists believe, due to this evidence, that Göbeklitepe was a pioneer in the production of early alcoholic beverages.

The discovery of giant, 40-gallon stone troughs containing traces of calcium oxalate bear out that last notion: the chemical residue could very well be the result of the locals brewing the world’s first beer. . In which case, Göbekli Tepe may very well have been the venue for a seasonal jamboree – a bit like the UK’s modern-day Glastonbury festival – or acted as a kind of prehistoric cultural and inter-tribal hub.
