I never knew they would carve rocks into homes. I thought they all lived in wooden houses but this is cool! Where is this? =)

[We will learn about it soon enough. It is in modern day Turkey.]

Are those things houses or are they places were people dig to find artifacts like you told us a couple of days ago?

[It is an excavation site where people used to live in homes thousands and thousands of years ago...]

I think it's soooo cool how they designed their houses on top of each others houses and it's cool how they took mud and dried it in the sun to us as bricks, if it weren't for them we wouldn't have brick houses now.

[No. Remember that their homes were clustered together.]
