    This document provides a brief history of Neolithic architecture between 10,000 BC to 2000 BC. It discusses that Neolithic architecture first emerged in the Fertile Crescent region and spread to other parts of the world. Homes during this period were typically made of sturdy stone foundations with mud or plaster coated stone walls and thatched roofs. Notable Neolithic settlements mentioned include Göbekli Tepe in Turkey, Jericho in the Levant, and Çatalhöyük in Turkey. The document also suggests Neolithic peoples may have been religious based on burial mound findings and the discovery of one of the oldest places of worship at a temple in Turkey dated around 9,500 BCE.
