Humans require 2000 to 3000 calories a day. Before agriculture 
that food to be gatherred/hunted (no significant food storage) 
each day. Because everything had to be carried from camp to camp, 
the technology was inefficient.

This meant after a big kill the family could loll around a few 
days telling stories and crafting more artistic arrowheads. Then 
on to the next camp getting hungrier and hungrier until the next 
big kill.

Our ancestors had long distance trade, fine arts, rocking hot 
music nobody can hear today, but they had trouble getting enough 
calories in one place for a sustained time to survive as well 
spend calories carving and moving big chunks of rock. We were 
thinking deep thoughts about how the universe worked. Sometimes 
the effort was deemed worthwhile.

The surprising thing about Gobekli Tepe is not the intellect, 
artistry, and skill. Humans be smart. The surprise is the degree 
of social engineering that fed it.

There is an argument about the age of the Sphinx. The argument of 
archaeologists against the geologists is at the time of proposed 
construction there is no evidence of an economy that could 
sustain the work. Then Gobekli showed up. It is too far from the 
Nile to prove anything, but it did show hunter gatherrers could 
organise and feed large communal projects.
