Rövid leírás:

Challenges the widely held assumption that the Neolithic saw an overall cognitive revolution.

Hosszú leírás:
Over recent years, a number of scholars have argued that the human mind underwent a cognitive revolution in the Neolithic. This volume seeks to test these claims at the Neolithic site of &&&199;atalh&&&246;y&&&252;k in Turkey and in other Neolithic contexts in the Middle East. It brings together cognitive scientists who have developed theoretical frameworks for the study of cognitive change, archaeologists who have conducted research into cognitive change in the Neolithic of the Middle East, and the excavators of the Neolithic site of &&&199;atalh&&&246;y&&&252;k who have over recent years been exploring changes in consciousness, creativity and self in the context of the rich data from the site. Collectively, the authors argue that when detailed data are examined, theoretical evolutionary expectations are not found for these three characteristics. The Neolithic was a time of long, slow and diverse change in which there is little evidence for an internal cognitive revolution.

'... an introduction by Hodder (Stanford Univ.), which presents the central problem of paleocognition and the &&&199;atalh&&&246;y&&&252;k site, the cognitive scientists consider whether cultural change could cause or encourage cognitive change, while the archaeologists look at various classes of artifacts and their distributions in time and space at &&&199;atalh&&&246;y&&&252;k and other Neolithic sites in the Near East to see if their changes could be related to cognitive changes in the people who made and used them.'
