The Plan of Çatalhöyük. A landscape painting from north and east walls of shrine VII. In the foreground is a town rising in graded terraces closely packed with rectangular houses. Behind the town an erupting volcano is shown, its sides covered with incandescent volcanic [lava] rolling down the slope of the mountain. Others are thrown up from the erupting cone above which hovers a cloud of smoke and ashes. The twin cones suggest that an eruption of Hasan Dağ, rising to a height of 3553 meters and standing at the eastern end of the Konya plain and visible from Çatalhöyük is recorded. Çatalhöyük 34
