“Richard Heath’s fascinating and highly readable book presents a decoding of the metrology of Göbekli Tepe of 10,000 BCE and advances arguments that support its role as a place for the worship of the Goddess. Although the megaliths of Europe were to come nearly 5,000 years later, the book marshals evidence from mathematics, astronomy, sacred architecture, and tone theory to show that these structures were a successor to Göbekli Tepe. The book disentangles many threads that went into the creation of the Classical Age.”
