The 14,000-year-old settlement of Wadi Hammeh 27 is one of the most spectacular sites of its kind, featuring the largest, most complex pre-Neolithic architectural complex yet discovered in the Middle East, an unparalleled series of artefact caches and activity areas, and a rich corpus of late Ice Age art pieces.
The blurb from Wadi Hammeh 27, an Early Natufian Settlement at Pella in Jordan edited by Phillip C. Edwards.

Phillip C. Edwards also appears in this video - "Stories from the Stone Age" - although I don't think it's the same site.
