What was it like to live in a house with no doors, no streets, and your ancestors buried beneath your bed?

Imagine a sunrise in 7000 BCE over the Anatolian plain. You climb through a hole in the roof and step into daily life in Çatalhöyük, one of the oldest and most fascinating settlements in human history: a honeycomb of mudbrick houses where people walked across rooftops, painted red handprints on white walls, and slept above their dead.

🏠 In this video you'll discover:
• Why Çatalhöyük had no streets and no doors
• How they cooked without pots (using glowing hot clay balls!)
• The mysterious bull horns and wall paintings
• Why they buried their dead under the sleeping platforms
• What children, work, food and hygiene were really like
• A society with almost no kings or hierarchy
