This work extends the author's generational phasing model into the Neolithic, using Çatalhöyük as a case study. By applying the "Triadic Generation" unit of 45 years-child, adult, and elder-Susko reconstructs the settlement's unfolding from its obscure pre-XII beginnings (~7500 BCE) to its peak and eventual dispersal (~5900 BCE). Drawing on archaeological reports, stratigraphic layers, figurines, plaster renewal, imported materials, and symbolic motifs, the study identifies successive cultural phases-emergence, establishment, flourishing, crisis, and universalization.
The narrative highlights not only material evidence (floors, walls, burials, figurines, obsidian mirrors, imported palm leaves, shells, textiles) but also the hidden drama of history: the fragile moments when cultures may take root or vanish. By situating Çatalhöyük within a broader generational framework, the book provides a Rosetta key for comparing Neolithic developments with later historical patterns. (Author's note: This work is an early release, the first part of the full generational sequence at Çatalhöyük.)
