NEG II Prehistoric Village
NEG II Prehistoric Village submitted by motist : Prehistoric Village Found in the Jordan Valley Links Old and New Stone Age (Vote or comment on this photo)
A newly-excavated village in the Jordan Valley sheds light on the historical shift from foraging to agriculture, say Hebrew University of Jerusalem archaeologists. They have revealed a prehistoric village, dated around 12,000 years ago.

The site is located in Nahal (wadi) Ein-Gev, at the middle of the perennial stream that flows west to the Sea of Galilee.

A series of excavations on site revealed an abundance of findings, including human burial remains, flint tools, art manifestations, faunal assemblage, ground stone and bone tools. The excavated area revealed an extensive habitation with deep cultural deposits (2.5 to 3 meters deep) and the site is estimated as covering roughly 1200 m2.

Surprisingly, the village differs markedly from others of its period in Israel. The findings encapsulate cultural characteristics typical of both the Old Stone Age (Paleolithic), and New Stone Age (Neolithic).
