Teshik-Tash

Teshik-tash is a word that refers to a place in Turkey where some very old and interesting rocks were found. These rocks are called 'monolithic sculptures' because they are giant rocks that look like they were made by people a really long time ago.

Now, scientists think that these rocks were actually made by humans a super long time ago, over 10,000 years ago, during a time when people didn't have the same technology that we do now. And even more amazing, they think that these rocks were used for some kind of religious or spiritual ceremonies, which means that people really cared about them and thought they were very important.

So, basically, teshik-tash is a special place where really old and important rocks were found that tell us a lot about how people lived a long, long time ago.
