Abstract

In a paper recently published in this journal, Martin B. Sweatman and Dimitrios Tsikritsis from the University of Edinburgh (School of Engineering) have suggested an interpretation for the early Neolithic monumental enclosures at Gobekli Tepe as space observatories and the site's complex iconography the commemoration of a catastrophic astronomical event ('Younger Dryas Comet Impact'). As the archaeologists excavating this site, we would like to comment on a few points that we feel require consideration in this discussion.

爱丁堡大学(工程学院)的Martin B. Sweatman和Dimitrios Tsikritsis在该杂志最近发表的一篇论文中提出了一种解释，即哥贝克力石阵新石器时代早期的纪念性围墙是太空天文台，该遗址的复杂图像是对灾难性天文事件(“新仙女木彗星撞击”)的纪念。作为挖掘这个遗址的考古学家，我们想就我们认为在讨论中需要考虑的几点发表意见。
