Çatalhöyük is a large Neolithic “town” with a history of 9.400 years and home to approximately 8.000 people.In this big town without streets, people were walking around on the roofs and entering their homes through the openings in the roofs. These people created wonderful works of art, as can be seen from the murals, reliefs and sculptures inside their homes that have survived thousands of years ago. The works of art found in Çatalhöyük shed light on the early periods when the people of Asia Minor began to live in the city. Çatalhöyük was first discovered in 1958 by British archaeologists James Mellaart (1925-2012) and David French. The first excavations were carried out by the British Archaeological Institute between 1961 and 1965. It consists of two mounds side by side in east and west directions; On the eastern mound, there are 18 layers of neolithic settlements dated between 7.400 BC and 6200 BC. On the western mound, there are Chalcolithic layers dated between 6.200 BC and 5.200 BC. -- source link
