Samarran Ceramic Plate (5000 BC); from Samarra, Mesopotamia - modern-day Iraq
Here women stand in quadrants, their hair whirling in four winds, circled by a ring of scorpions.... ..
Samarra, a neolithic town created a long line of splendid painted ceramics and female figurines.

Of animals and a headless man. Göbekli Tepe, Pillar 43
Göbekli Tepe – the world’s first temple and the dawn of human spirituality.....
The hidden in the rolling hills of southeastern Türkiye 🇹🇷, Göbekli Tepe dates back to around 9600 bce, making it over 11,000 years old — long before the invention of writing, pottery, or agriculture. built by hunter-gatherers, this circular sanctuary of towering T-shaped pillars stands as the earliest known monumental architecture on earth.
The each limestone pillar, some weighing more than 20 tons, is carved with animals, abstract symbols, and cosmic motifs — a mysterious language of stone that may have reflected humanity’s first organized belief system. the site challenges our understanding of prehistory, suggesting that religion may have birthed civilization, not the other way around.
Today, beneath the quiet sands, göbekli tepe still hums with ancient wonder — a bridge between the wild and the sacred. do these stones mark the moment when humans first looked up and asked the universe, why are we here?

Фридрих Ницше: Мы уже в общем больше не понимаем архитектуру
"... Мы уже в общем больше не понимаем архитектуру, по крайней мере, далеко не так хорошо, как понимаем музыку. Мы выросли из символизма линий и фигур, как мы были отняты от груди звуковых воздействий риторики, и больше не впитывали это Искусство (Art) из материнского молока образования (Bildung) с первого мгновения нашей жизни. В греческом или христианском здании всё изначально что-то значило, причём в отношении высшего порядка вещей: это настроение неисчерпаемой значительности окутывало здание, словно волшебная вуаль. Красота входила в систему лишь попутно, не ослабляя существенно основного чувства потусторонне-возвышенного (Unheimlich-Erhabenen), освящённого божественной близостью и магией; красота в лучшем случае смягчала ужас, - но этот ужас был всегда необходимым условием. - Что для нас теперь красота здания? То же, что красивое лицо бездушной женщины: нечто, подобное маске.

STONE COTTAGE, SCOTLAND (18TH CENTURY)

STONE COTTAGE, SCOTLAND (18TH CENTURY)
Tucked in the green heart of the Scottish Highlands, this stone cottage from the 18th century hums with pastoral solitude. Its thick walls of rough granite and thatched roof speak of hands that shaped survival from the land.
Moss creeps along the stones like memory, and wind weaves through grass like an old song. In its silence, one hears the echo of hearthfire and the whisper of vanished lives. How long can warmth linger after footsteps fade?
