Description
3-D reconstruction of the entire Çatalhöyük Shrine 10 sequence of buildings (Buildings 17-6-24/VII.10-VI.B.10-VI.A.10) in the South Area. This sequence is one of the longest and most repetitiously reconstructed sequence of buildings ever documented at Çatalhöyük, encompassing the early and middle levels of the East mound. This 3-D reconstruction is based on multifaceted archaeological data, encompassing two very different investigation periods and research methodologies: the first being the legacy data from Mellaart’s excavations in the 1960s, upon which the reconstruction of Shrines VI.10 and VII.10 are based, comprised mainly of excavation plans, hypothetical reconstructions, textual descriptions and a limited photographic corpus; the other being a larger, more detailed and more diversified dataset produced by the ÇRP between the 1990s and the present—that we used for the reconstruction of Buildings 6 and 17. This second collection of data includes excavator’s discussions and diaries, GIS-based plans, a massive archive of photographs and videos, published annual reports (e.g. Çatalhöyük 2015), and final publication
