An 11 600 year-old communal structure from the Neolithic of southern Jordan

Authors: Mithen, S.J., Finlayson, B., Smith, S., Jenkins, E., Najjar, M. and Maričević, D.

Journal: Antiquity

Volume: 85

Issue: 328

Pages: 350-364

ISSN: 0003-598X

DOI: 10.1017/S0003598X00067806

Abstract:

The authors present a new type of communal and monumental structure from the earliest Neolithic in western Asia. A complement to the decorated stone pillars erected at Göbekli Tepe in the north, 'Wadi Faynan 16 Structure O75' in the southern Levant is a ritualised gathering place of a different kind. It serves to define wider western Asia as an arena of social experiment in the tenth millennium BC, one in which community seems to take precedence over economy.
