The drawing has similarities to other pre-ceramic Neolithic images in the region.

In Turkey, archaeologists found interesting carvings on benches built into the stone. It was found in the southeast of the country in the Urfa region, according to Live Science.

It is assumed that the find belongs to the Neolithic period. The bas-relief is about 11,000 years old. So it is the oldest documented.

The drawing shows two men surrounded by bulls and leopards holding their genitals in their hands.

The size of the bas-relief is about 0.7-0.9 meters high and about 3.7 meters long.

Archaeologists admit that they do not understand what exactly the author wanted to convey, but note that in terms of technique and workmanship, this bas-relief has something in common with other pre-ceramic Neolithic imagery in the region.

Recall that once in Scotland, archaeologists found one of the largest hoards of medieval coins.

In Croatia, archaeologists discovered a Roman temple under a church
