The violent birth of modern man: The incredible ancient stone carvings that reveal how a devastating comet impact 13,000 years ago killed thousands, altered the climate and triggered the rise of the first civilisations
Scientists were analysing symbols carved on pillars at Gobekli Tepe in Turkey
Using memorial carvings they pinpointed a comet impact to around 11,000BC
The comet triggered a mini ice age that lasted 1,000 years
This ice age forced humans to develop farming techniques to grow their crops
Ancient symbols carved into stone at an archaeological site in Turkey tell the story of a devastating comet impact that triggered a mini ice age more than 13,000 years ago, scientists believe.
Evidence from the carvings, made on a pillar known as the Vulture Stone, suggests that a swarm of comet fragments hit the Earth in around 11000 BC.
One image of a headless man is thought to symbolise human disaster and extensive loss of life.
The devastating event, which wiped out creatures such as woolly mammoths, also helped spark the rise of civilisation.
