From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
a Roman motif ... generally considered to be a reference to the practice of garlanding sacrificial oxen, the heads of which were primitively displayed on the walls of the temples, a practice with a long history reaching back to the sophisticated Neolithic site of Çatalhöyük ...

Is there any actual evidence of continuity in this practice over so vast a period? It seems extremely unlikely, since the end of Çatalhöyük pre-dates the origins of Rome by some 5,000 years. That's a really, really long time; because the distance between now and ancient Rome is less than half as great as the distance between Rome and Çatalhöyük. -- 202.63.39.58 (talk) 09:27, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
