Zorluk: OrtaExplicit Details

In a 2021 study of the Neolithic site of Çatalhöyük in modern-day Turkey, archaeologist Marina Milić and colleagues analyzed obsidian tools recovered from various domestic structures. The team determined that the obsidian was sourced from the Göllü Dağ volcano, located over 150 kilometers away. Surprisingly, Milić's analysis of the knapping debris revealed that the tools were not manufactured at the settlement itself; rather, they were imported as finished blades and flakes. This suggests that the residents of Çatalhöyük relied on established regional exchange networks for pre-formed obsidian items, rather than raw materials for local crafting.
