Excavations in the rockshelter at Pinarbasi, 24.5km south-east of catalhoyuk, have brought to light a sequence of structures and a rich assemblage of animal bones, with some of the bones embedded in plaster objects. The authors argue for a strong link with catalhoyuk, and propose a hunter-herder site operated by a close-knit group from that settlement, supplying meat to it, but practising their own up-country rituals - so providing a glimpse of the 'lived landscape'.
