Summary
An analytical study of the knapped obsidian and flint objects from the Catalh yuek, the largest known Neolithic site in Turkey. James Conolly incorporates an analytical study with a wider social framework exploring technology and typological spatial and contextual patterning over time. In studying this alongside the social context of production, Conolly detects significant technological changes throughout the duration of the site, specialised production, and makes an interpretation of the social and symbolic role of objects.
