Neolithic in Turkey - 2 Volumes(Text/Plates)

Long overlooked as a primary area of study, the Neolithic cultures of Anatolia receive the full attention they deserve in this two-volume work devoted to the Neolithic era in Turkey. Fieldwork in Anatolia during the past two decades has brought light abundant and exceptionally rich Neolithic remains, demonstrating that the region played a principal role in the formation of the early village communities. Written for the expert and layman alike, Neolithic in Turkey presents the most recent discoveries and up-to-date research in this important study.
