I maintain that Modern is the best, specifically the fried onion and pickled pepper pizza. With a cold beer it approaches what I imagine paradise must be like.

Regarding the burying of the ancient city. This doesn’t seem that uncommon to me. I live in a city that has issues with flooding and the entire downtown was raised 10 feet, sometime in the early 1900’s. You can now take tours of the underground old city. Maybe the reason was that simple.

I love good pizza in all of its' variations. Thanks for the notes about New Haven.

About Gobleki Tepe, and its' surrounds, 11,000 years ago, the ice sheets were receding North, and the land around that area would have been far wetter and more populated with game and gatherables. It doesn't take a lot of climate changes to make a once fertile area uninhabitable. Witness the drying of the American Southwest at the end of the Mideaval warm period, or the increasing cold that drove the Scandanavians South and East at the start of the Migration period in Europe.
