- and 8,000-Year-Old Pottery
The findings were made during excavations in Gre Asngaran and Kani Aspahan, conducted in partnership with the Duhok Directorate of Archeology and Culture, the General Directorate of Archeology and Culture, and Italy’s University of Udine.
Researchers discovered a pot believed to have been used for cleaning wheat, dating back 8,000 years. Additionally, two wooden rooms on a hill in Gre Asngaran, thought to have belonged to prominent community figures, were identified as ancient human dwellings.
“These findings provide evidence of continuous human settlement in the region, showcasing transitions from agricultural societies to more socially complex communities,” the ministry said.
The discoveries shed light on the development of human life in the border regions of present-day Kurdistan, marking significant progress in understanding early human civilization in the area.
