COMING: MALTA and TURKEY - *The Oldest and the Earliest: An Encounter with the Birth of Civilization*
Dating from ca. 3,700 BC and continuing development for more than a millennium, Malta’s megalithic temples are the oldest freestanding buildings on earth. Remains of the “Temple Culture” represent a snapshot portrait of both the Neolithic Mediterranean Region and of indigenous development in the evolution of monumental architecture. Çatalhöyük :a village of 300 mud brick and plaster residences, one of the earliest villages found to date. The site was occupied from about 6,300-5,500 BC, and its most striking and famous feature are the shrines dedicated to what has been called the "Mother Goddess." Turkey's stunning megalithic Göbekli Tepe* site is the oldest place of worship so far found anywhere. It’s likely that the first stones were raised as early as 10,000 BC.*	Sixteen-night tour program with optional extensions in Turkey Contact us for more information: OTSF@AncientMed.org
