  1. De Çatalhöyük à Akkad : trois seuils anthropologiques de l’État

    Çatalhöyük : sédentarité égalitaire. Uruk : ville-proto-État, spécialisation et hiérarchie. Akkad/Sumer : premier empire territorial centralisé. Trois seuils : communs égalitaires → urbanisation hiérarchique → État impérial. #Çatalhöyük #Uruk #Akkad #Anthropologie #OrigineÉtat 1.

  6. Another passion of mine is the history of #Çatalhöyük site - and whether or not it had a #MatriachalSociety!

    Ancient city possibly ruled by females living in a "matriarchal society" more than 9,000 years ago, researchers say

    Excerpt: "We need to move away from our Western bias that assumes all societies are #patrilineal. Many cultures, including some #IndigenousAustralian groups, pass identity, land rights, and responsibilities through the mother's line — a #matrilineal system,' study co-author Dr. Eline Schotsmans, a research fellow at Australia's University of Wollongong's School of Science, said in a statement.

    "These findings come several months after researchers studying social networks in #CelticSociety in Britain before the #RomanInvasion gathered genetic evidence from a late Iron Age cemetery and found that women were closely related, while unrelated men tended to come into the community from elsewhere, likely after marriage.

    "Using an examination of ancient DNA recovered from 57 graves in #Dorset in southwest England, their study, published in the journal Nature, shows that two-thirds of the individuals were descended from a single maternal lineage. This suggests that women had some control of land and property, as well as strong social support, researchers said.

    "Researchers said upon the release of their findings, 'It is possible that maternal ancestry was the primary shaper of group identities.' "

  11. Here we go: #Catalhöyük just got its first clear case of #trepanation - as indicated by a2.5 cm hole in a young man's skull excavated on the floor of a house in the #Neolithic settlement in #Turkey.

  12. #Archaeology: Did #Plants #Domesticate Humans? Watch 'The First Entanglement' [video]

    By Regina Sobel on January 26, 2023

    "Those who study places like #Çatalhöyük see a complex interplay between human actions and the workings of nature and genetics. Ceren Kabukçu, an archaeobotanist who researches ancient plant specimens, explains how a random mutation in wild wheat produced characteristics that pleased early farmers so much that they selected those plants over and over again until the mutated plants became domesticated. But it didn’t end there. The domesticated wheat evolved to such a degree that it could no longer reproduce without the aid of human hands. Much of what we eat today is rooted in this codependency."

  13. Finally, and this convinces me that we might read at least the left part of this #Sayburc depiction as #hunting scene, there are these interesting things called #ThrowingSticks.

    With quite similar depictions again coming from #Catalhöyük.

  14. With the difference that in #CatalHöyük a group of people is depicted w/ an apparently *slain* #aurochs.

    Its characteristic features (note the head: not any longer presenting horns (and danger), legs bend, tongue out) also known from #GobekliTepe's P66:

  15. But again it is this combination of powerful animal (here an #aurochs, able to put up a fight) and human which makes the whole scene so interesting - and extraordinarily fascinating.

    Somehow reminding of that famous (but a bit later) mural from #Neolithic #CatalHöyük ...
