- Abstract:
Çatalhöyük is a Neolithic settlement mound, enclosing the remains of a honeycomb of mud brick buildings, built side by side and one on top of the other for a thousand years, starting around 9000 years ago. Then, as today, there is no proto-typical, individual household, or house. Avoiding such generalizations, the Berkeley Archaeologists at Çatalhöyük (BACH) learn as much as possible about individual residents or particular artifacts and use this knowledge to create rich, multivocal and multi-scalar descriptions and histories of place. From 1997 to 2003, the BACH team focused their attention on excavating the life-history of a single building and three separate small cells adjoining it. Termed Building 3, this 400 square foot mud brick structure was likely home to several generations of a Neolithic family. Excavations of Building 3 revealed painted walls, a collapsed roof, burials beneath the floor, and many structural modifications providing intriguing clues clues to its life and that of its occupants. A magnificent flint dagger with a carved bone handle was found in one of the adjacent cells. The BACH team invites you to explore the data and use your imagination to create your own story of life in this household 9000 years ago.
