Tell Abu Hureyra (Arabic: تل أبو هريرة) is an archaeological site in the Euphrates valley in modern Syria. The remains of the villages within the tell come from over 4,000 years of pre-ceramic habitation spanning the Epipaleolithic and Neolithic periods. The site consisted of two villages; Abu Hureyra 1 and Abu Hureyra 2. Abu Hureyra 1's inhabitants were from the Epipaleolithic era and were sedentary hunter gatherers. Abu Hureyra 2 took place in early Neolithic times and was composed of farmers. Ancient Abu Hureyra was occupied between 13,000 and 9,000 years ago in radio carbon years. The site is significant because the inhabitants of Abu Hureyra started out as hunter-gatherers, but gradually moved to farming, making them the earliest known farmers in the world https://www.slashgear.com/how-a-meteo... http://ancientneareast.tripod.com/Abu... https://www.smithsonianmag.com/scienc... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabqa_Dam #AbuHureyra #YoungerDryas #impactevent #comet #asteroid #astronomy #archaeologynews #ancienthistorynews #YoungerDryasImpact #Syria #LostHistory #dam #GobekliTepe #Pillar43 #Natufians #YoungerDryasImpactEvent
