BC), in the Konya Plain of Central Anatolia, was made famous by the excavations of James Mellaart in 1960s, who uncovered remains of a large, pueblo-like agglomeration of houses ('the world's first city'). Renewed excavations at the site over the past twenty years have used a range of current recovery techniques, including systematic sampling of archaeological deposits for archaeobotanical remains. The archaeobotanical recovery programme represents a unique opportunity to directly investigate the socio-economic underpinnings of an early 'town' community through the lens of crop husbandry and plant use. In this book, new archaeobotanical evidence from the early-mid Neolithic sequence of Çatalhöyük (c. 7400- 6500cal BC) is presented and used as a basis for investigations into the nature and scale of crop cultivation at the site. The results shed light on the economic and social role of agricultural production at a large long-lived Neolithic village, and its implications for issues such as settlement location, residents' mobility, crop cultivation productivity and long-term sustainability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dragana Filipovic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1407313096\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781407313092\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e British Archaeological Reports Oxford Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/12\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 167\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.69h x 8.27w x 0.50d","brand":"Dragana Filipovic","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48873255665919,"sku":"9781407313092","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/early-farming-in-central-anatolia-dragana-filipovic-9781407313092","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
