Wild faunal remains suggest that hunting remained in practice, even though domesticated animals and plants comprised the staple diet of the Neolithic people of Çatalhöyük. At the same time, hunting and the 'wild' are venerated in the site's iconography (wall paintings, wild bull skull mural installations, figurines), while obsidian projectiles were carefully thought of and executed artifacts some of which seem to have served as actual weapons whereas others as emblems of identity. Therefore, the evidence suggests that hunting was not merely an alternate subsistence strategy but most likely an arena where symbolic expression and social identities could be performed and negotiated.

In this paper I explore the history of research on distinguishing different types of projectile technology (spears, arrows, darts), before then turning to preliminary results from the study of the Çatalhöyük projectiles.
At Çatalhöyük hunting was taking place in the context of a primarily agro-pastoral community where it features prominently in iconography. The ability to classify arrowheads and spearheads is deemed important in this specific context, as these weapons imply the use of two separate hunting techniques, namely hunting with a bow and arrow and hunting with a spear. These techniques have different socioeconomic (e.g., different point types might signify functional differences) and symbolic (e.g., hunting rituals, differences in performativity and skill) implications for the history and people of Çatalhöyük.
Drawing on North American literature, I examine three different methods for distinguishing between arrowheads and spearheads proposed by Patterson (1985), Thomas (1978; developed further by Shott [1997]) and Van Buren (1974).
Keywords: projectile points; arrowheads; spearheads; Çatalhöyük; hunting.

Η μελέτη της λίθινης τεχνολογίας μας προσφέρει σημαντικές πληροφορίες για το επίπεδο των τεχνικών γνώσεων στην λάξευση και τις χρήσεις των εργαλείων στην καθημερινή ζωή, ενώ η μελέτη των πρώτων υλών μας ανοίγει ατραπούς ερμηνείας όσον αφορά στους λόγους πίσω από τις επιλογές του λαξευτή, καθώς και στην προσβασιμότητα σε πηγές και δίκτυα διακίνησης πρώτων υλών. Οι οικισμοί Μικρή Βόλβη και Ρεβένια είναι γεωγραφικά και χρονολογικά κοντινοί και χωροταξικά παρόμοιοι. Τα σύνολα των λιθοτεχνιών τους όμως δείχνουν σημαντικές διαφοροποιήσεις κυρίως στην ποιότητα των πρώτων υλών που είχαν στη διάθεσή τους και τις τεχνικές ικανότητες των λαξευτών κάθε οικισμού. Οι λιθοτεχνίες με αυτόν τον τρόπο γίνονται ένα ικανό μέσο για την κατανόηση της κοινωνικής πολυμορφίας και πολυπλοκότητας των πρώτων Νεολιθικών εγκατεστημένων γεωργών της Μακεδονίας.
Λέξεις κλειδιά: Αρχαιότερη Νεολιθική, λίθινα απολεπισμένα εργαλεία, οψιανός, μελί πυριτόλιθος, Κεντρική Μακεδονία.
