When did people start building houses with corners? At
first, according to evolution, the building were round and did not have corners,
that is what archaeologist claim.
“Buildings
with corners have a much deeper history than we thought, adding an unexpected
twist to a curious architectural mystery from the dawn of village life.”
For instance, the town
of Çatalhöyük in Turkey has houses with corners, it was founded in 7 100 BC.
“Archaeologists
have long been aware of a global trend in early architecture. From south-west
Asia to the Americas, the very earliest settlements typically contained
buildings with a round or oval-shaped ground plan. Then, usually a few
thousand years later, these apparently went out of fashion, becoming
houses
with corners.”
According to the book of Genesis, people were able to build cities at the very beginning and they had corners.
