Neolithic site (6000 BC) in Turkey-in-Asia,
SE of Konya. It was a fortified city and had
temples with wall paintings, and objects like
jewellery, obsidian, and mirrors. Finds at
Jericho and Catal Huyuk together indicated
much earlier development of urban life in the
ancient world than was previously imagined.
