A second archaeological site in Turkey, Kaharan Tepe, is represented here in the background of this drawing. This site was discovered in the same region as Gobekli Tepe and is attributed to the same Paleolithic period. The 6 meters pillars were actually carved directly in the bedrock using only a silex stone. Still today, it is almost inconceivable how these sites were created by hunter-gatherers having almost no tools and no workforce, since agriculture had not yet been invented. In the foreground of the piece, we see a series of octahedrons representing time crystals. A recent scientific discovery has enabled us to create a crystal that not only repeats its pattern in space but also through time, contradicting the law of conservation of energy. A crystal emitting a beat that is actually eternal.
