Some aspects of building at the ‘aceramic‐neolithic’ settlement of Çayönü Tepesi

Abstract

Excavations at Çayönü Tepesi in southeastern Turkey have taken place since 1964. The main phase of occupation belongs to the aceramic neolithic and is dated between about 7250 and 6750 be. The architecture of the site ‐ the long sequence of building types as well as the outstanding special buildings ‐ is of considerable importance, since we know of no other site from such an early period that yields as much architectural information, concerning both the invention of building techniques and the shift from constructional into decorative features.
