Ancient Carvings in Turkey May Represent World's Oldest Calendar

Göbekli Tepe site reveals 12,000-year-old solar and lunar calendar potentially linked to a comet strike

Researchers interpret V-shaped carvings as representing individual days, forming a 365-day calendar.
The site includes depictions of lunar months and the summer solstice, indicating advanced astronomical knowledge.
Evidence suggests the carvings may memorialize a comet strike 13,000 years ago, possibly triggering a mini ice age.
The event could have led to significant cultural shifts, including the development of agriculture and new religious practices.
Göbekli Tepe's discoveries predate similar known calendars by millennia, showcasing early human ingenuity.
