Central to my new book, THE EGGS BENEDICT OPTION, is a comparison of the first Agricultural Revolution (AR), c.10,000 years ago, and the new one Klaus Schwab and the globalists are trying to usher in.

So what was the first AR like?

Let me take you back to Çatalhöyük. 👇

In my book, I call the first AR the "original Great Reset", because it was a total transformation of Neolithic society that was predicated on a transformation of the way food was produced and consumed. From being mobile hunter-gatherers, Neolithic people became sedentary farmers

under the control of a totally novel form of authority, the first states. Çatalhöyük is important because it represents an intermediate stage between hunter-gathering and the agricultural state. We can clearly see dramatic changes that took place both physically and spiritually.

Çatalhöyük is a UNESCO World Heritage site in Anatolia (Turkey), discovered in 1958. Situated on two hills, it comprises 37 hectares and shows evidence of occupation between 7400 and 5200 BC. Dense rows of streetless houses are placed back to back.

Access to the houses was via trapdoors in the roofs. Although much about the interiors is typical of the Neolithic, the most striking features in many of the houses are terrifying sculptures of bulls and strange half-human half-animal hybrids.

One famous figurine is a seated woman flanked by two leopards, whose tails wrap around her. In another room, a pair of breasts project from the wall. The nipples are split apart and contain the skulls of vultures, foxes and weasels.

This is a society that seems to be at war with itself and nature. Where once the natural world was something early man was part of, now it is something apart from man, something to be afraid of. "The people of Çatalhöyük . . . seemed to fear and despise the wild" (S. Mithen).

The sheer uniformity of the settlement is unprecedented, both inside and outside the buildings. This new spatial uniformity reflects the uniformity of life as an agriculturalist, where virtually every aspect of life follows the rhythms of just a single grain plant.

It's no exaggeration to say the AR was as much a domestication of man as it was of plants or animals. It left Neolithic farmers smaller, weaker and less free than their hunter-gatherer ancestors and contemporaries.

Perhaps this is starting to sound familiar now?
