DAE think the 3,000 year gap at that Turkish dig site in Turkey should get more attention?
I read last week that a site near Gaziantep has a layer with no signs of people for over 3,000 years between two settlements, and some folks say it was drought while others think the dirt just washed away. A 3,000 year gap is a huge chunk of time to just shrug at, and I can't figure out which side sounds more believable. What do you all think actually happened there?

Doubt the drought theory holds up at all, since 3,000 years of nothing takes way more than dry weather to explain and dirt washing away sounds way more plausible for a single layer. Soil moves, floods happen, and people move on, so a gap in the dirt doesn't always mean the land sat empty that whole time.
