Courtesy of the Daily Grail - here's a report of the discovery of what's described as a Neolithic-era temple estimated to be 11,300 years old, near Ilısu in Turkey:

It's described as "similar to one previously unearthed in Göbeklitepe." Göbekli Tepe features prominently in some theories about the origins of civilisation - both conventional and unconventional - and is about 160 miles to the west of the new discovery.
