Brian Fagan , Emeritus Professor of Anthropology, University of California, Santa Barbara “Michael Balter takes us on a fascinating journey through the excavations at one of the world’s great archaeological sites. He provides an engrossing chronicle of one of the world’s earliest farming villages and of the personalities and thought of the archaeologists engaged in the research—the human side of archaeology.”
David Bowie , Rock Musician “I liked it very much. A little heavy on theory for my taste but exciting to read of what could have been the first town. I also approve of burying the dead under the floor. At least you'll remember where you put them.”
