Between the Pre-Pottery Neolithic A and Pre-Pottery Neolithic B, settlements witnessed increasing longevity and there was a region wide shift from circular, purportedly single room to relatively large rectangular multi-room domestic structures. At the same time many non-domestic structures appeared. A number of regional vernacular traditions in domestic architecture have been identified, with rather differently structured uses of space. However it is the broad similarities in formal characteristics of domestic structures over the Near East that tends to be highlighted by researchers, especially those working on the Southern Levantine record that therefore forms the focus of this study.
