  • MediaDB / «Social revolution in the Neolithic era: from Çayenu to Çatalhöyük” Brosius Bernhard: download fb2, read online

    About the book: year / An in-depth summary of research is presented by Bernhard Brosius. The results of his study of archaeological excavations in Anatolia, more precisely, the former city of Çatalhöyük, lead to a completely unambiguous conclusion: here, at the height of the Neolithic, 7000 BC. e. there was a social revolution that destroyed all the old dominant authoritarian and hierarchical social structures and gave birth to a society of freedom and equality that existed for 3000 years. Anyone who would shake their head in skepticism should thoroughly read the well-founded research on this, probably the first in human history free society. Even conservative bourgeois historians and archaeologists, far from any revolutionary convictions, find no other explanation for the social changes of that time other than social revolution. Although the text was published back in 2004, this fact is still completely unknown to most people. This is not surprising, given what class of society provides financial resources for archaeological excavations and in whose hands special magazines and media are located. Knowledge of the social revolution during the Neolithic period can cause significant damage to the ruling class. After all, this shows that it is possible to radically change society, eliminate parasites and oppressors and overcome the patriarchal split in society. In addition to several years of freedom during the Makhnovist movement of 1917–1921. in Ukraine and the social revolution of 1936 in Spain, we do not know of a similar event. For 3 thousand years it seems almost unique. The fact that this event was conveyed to people in an understandable form is the merit of Bernhard Brosius. From 7000 to 4000 BC. e. in Anatolia and the Balkan region there was an equal society in which men and women enjoyed equal rights and war was unknown. A high standard of living for everyone was achieved again only many millennia later. Up to 10 thousand people lived in the settlement of Çatalhöyük for more than 1,000 years. Archaeological finds not only indicate the development of egalitarian social structures, but also provide insight into the cultural achievements of a free society.
