Published 3 years, 5 months ago

Description

The recent discovery of a 11,400-year-old village in Turkey challenges ideas of when and why humans first settled down. Excavations at monumental site Karahan Tepe, near the Turkish-Syrian border, suggest that society was established before the dawn of agriculture.
