Theoretical Proposal
Description
This theoretical research explores whether the prediluvian “Pillars of Knowledge” described in ancient Jewish traditions may correspond to the archaeological site of Göbekli Tepe. By comparing early textual sources referencing preserved antediluvian knowledge with current archaeological findings and interpretations of Göbekli Tepe, this study evaluates whether meaningful parallels exist or whether similarities are coincidental. Using interdisciplinary historical and textual analysis, the project seeks to contribute to ongoing discussions about the relationship between mythological memory, flood traditions, and prehistoric monumental architecture.
