Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated early Neolithic sites in the northern Levant, northwestern Zagros, southeastern Zagros and the northeastern Iranian Plateau. It is clear that sites in the northern Levant facilitated not only the development of the earliest farming societies, but also the expansion of settlement size and social complexity, much earlier than other regions in West Asia. This progression occurred gradually and reached its height around 7000 BC in northern Syria. The project leader had a hypothesis that Neolithization and Urbanization were part of the same historical process, and that these two processes advanced in related regions, i.e., the northern Levant and neighboring northern Mesopotamia. The hypothesis was partly proved by results from this project.
