Abstract

Humankind shaped the earth both physically and culturally during the 2.5 million years from the day they appeared to today. This million-year-old heritage accumulation found by the archaeological excavations makes us understand the cultural development of humankind. Human-shaped vessels are one part of this heritage, and a part of religious belief that developed alongside cultural growth. This work studies the human-shaped vessels of Anatolia from the beginning of its creation to the end of the Early Bronze Age.
