Stone sculptures, everyday objects, and jewelry from the UNESCO World Heritage site Göbeklitepe are exhibited alongside finds from Karahantepe, Sayburç, and Çakmaktepe. Spanish photographer Isabel Muñoz‘s contemporary interpretations frame the hunter-gatherers’ transition to settled life across eight thematic sections.
Curated by Barbara Helwing (Vorderasiatisches Museum) and Necmi Karul (Istanbul University) in collaboration with Şanlıurfa Archaeology Museum and the Taş Tepeler project, the exhibition highlights community resilience.
