註釋The book begins with a puzzle: leopards are a central part of C, atalho]yu]k's art, but virtually none of their remains have been found. In solving this mystery, the reader is led into the elaborate social and symbolic world of C, atalho]yu]k--a world where people were buried beneath the floors of houses, later to be exhumed and decapitated, and the head handed down from generation to generation.

This lively firsthand account of a major archaeological site is full of insights into past lives and momentous events, and is richly illustrated with images of the art, the artifacts, and the excavations themselves.
