		<description>Good post, CherryPie.
Unfortunately the Turkish - government and local authorities - for many many years did next to nothing, rather &lt;i&gt;torpedoed&lt;/i&gt; the excavations and scientific research.
Well, it&#039;s easier to put boys into jail in whose luggage you find a little stone, picked up as a souvenir.</description>

		<description>I am glad you found it interesting.  You should read the link that Economic Voice posted in the comments above, that is another really interesting theory on the location of the Garden of Eden.</description>

		<description>Great post, Cherie. I recall reading about this at the time, but am delighted to see this detailed and highly readable account of the excavation, findings and Schmid&#039;s theory (which is persuasive, to say the least: so many landscapes were changed/formed by the advent of settled, agricultural society - not always for the good). Thank you!</description>

		<description>I remember reading about this in the Mail....I think it was the mail....

The most convincing story I read was about the Garden of Eden being under the Persian Gulf.

I will have to dig the article out....this is a good link though
