Göbekli Tepe is an archaeological site full of mysteries that has turned many assumptions about human history upside down since its discovery. One of the elements that make this place special is the animal figures and human-faced statues on T-shaped columns. Human-faced statues in particular arouse great curiosity among researchers.

The Mystery of Skeleton Statues:

The definition of these statues found in Göbekli Tepe as "skeletons" is due to the fact that their faces are usually carved with deep grooves and in a way that resembles bone structures. This strengthens the idea that the statues symbolize not only a face but also an inner world, the soul or the relationship with death.

Death and Rebirth: Some researchers suggest that these statues represent the cycle of death and rebirth. While the deep grooves may symbolize the dark and unknown side of death, the general structure of the statues may represent rebirth.

Shamanistic Beliefs: The findings in Göbekli Tepe show that the people living in that period had a developed belief system. These statues may be masks used in shamanistic rituals or tools used to communicate with spirits.

Social Hierarchy: The different sizes and detailed carvings of the statues may indicate the existence of people with different statuses in society. Large and detailed statues may represent religious leaders or important people.
