# Cereal processing at Early Neolithic Göbekli Tepe, southeastern Turkey

Laura Dietrich, Julia Meister, Oliver Dietrich et al., 2019. _PLOS ONE_.

More than 7,000 grinding stones and stone vessels, with use-wear and phytolith evidence, show cereals were ground on a large scale at the site. The authors argue this fed many people, consistent with feasting or a resident group.
