From the abandons of the "Roded" type sites and the assortment of the artifacts and the flint utensils found, longevity of the sites from the 8Th to the 4Th millennium BCE we can conclude that in those days folks established complex religion ideology with well established religious rituals.
* As the sites spread over 10 square kilometres i gave an approximate GPS position just to get an idea about the general whereabouts of the sites.
