Scene of a bull
Painted plaster ornament, Çatalhöyük, 6000 BC
Around a cloven-hoofed red bull with huge horns, a big tail and tongue shown lolling out is a group of highly active people with a leopard skin. The picture depicts mostly men as well as a pregnant woman. Donkeys and dogs are also shown. There is an object on the bull’s tail, which could be a drum. Some people are shown holding bows, sticks and axes.
