Wann fingen Menschen an, an Götter zu glauben?

The Origins of Religion, Early Human Beliefs, Göbekli Tepe All modern humans believe in something supernatural—or at least they have. Gods, spirits, higher powers: hardly any culture in human history has been without them. But when did it all begin? And why specifically with Homo sapiens, and no other human species? In this video, we'll explore: When did humans begin to believe in gods?
