A Journey to the Past

Greetings Beloved Kin,

Our kin Jean-Jacques at GypsyCafe.org shares his photos and the history of this place. In addition to this post, Jean-Jacques shares photos and experiences from the Mayan ruins and sacred sites around the world.

Gobekli Tepe and The City of Prophets

Sanliurfa, previously known as Urfa (and before that Edessa) boasts not only one of the most ancient cities ever uncovered by archeologists, it’s also a location where a number of prophets in ancient history hailed from, in particular Abraham and Job in the Bible (who are considered as prophets regionally).

Although out of the way, this destination beckoned me due its special combination of features and because it was a doable detour on my return from Georgia in the Caucuses. The rest of this post features notes and photographs of my visit to Sanliurfa and its surrounds in the beginning of October 2023.
