NEW | Incredible Discovery at 12,000-Year-Old Younger Dryas Settlement Re-Writes History! (Ancient Architects)

There’s a 12,000-year-old Natufian village in the Levant called Nahal Ein Gev II, located around 2 km east of the Sea of Galilee on the southern slopes of the Golan Heights.

It’s one of the most incredible Natufian sites ever discovered, with a village, a complex cemetery, stone buildings and unique facilities.

And this is a Younger Dryas site, a settlement, pre-dating Gobekli Tepe and Karahan Tepe in South Eastern Turkey, with calibrated carbon-14 dates ranging from 12,550 to 12,000 years ago.

This is a very important site in the history of humanity, because not only do we see clear pre-cursor art, architecture, customs, practices and tools compared to what we see at the later Pre-Pottery Neolithic sites, but a discovery was made in 2024 that re-wrote the history books.

The channel does a good job to point out that there was a higher level of sophistication 12,000 years ago, including the use of spindle whorls (wheels), than previously understood. However, the content here does clash with channels that point to evidence of much more advanced technological use at many ancient sites, in Egypt and South America, that may go back to this time period (a parallel civilisation).
