Published in September, “Turkish Stonehenge: Gobekli Tepe” details Plegge’s discovery of the purpose of the alignment of the pillars at Gobekli Tepe in southeastern Turkey.

While researching the 12,000-year-old-site, Plegge said, he noticed something that no one else did. The pillars were purposefully aligned to track the equinoxes and solstices.

Plegge lives in North Dakota.

“Turkish Stonehenge: Gobekli Tepe”  is available from Plegge’s webpage, www.turkishstonehenge.com, or www.amazon.com and costs $12.95.

An e-book version is planned for release this month.
