प्राचीन काळापासून अस्तित्वात असणारी नगरे
प्राचीन काळापासून मानवी लोकवस्ती असणाऱ्या नगरांची यादी खाली दिली आहे. This is a list of present-day cities by the time period over which they have been continuously inhabited.The age claims listed may be disputed, or indeed obsolete. Differences in opinion can result from different definitions of "city" as well as "continuously inhabited".
प्रत्येकास "जगातील सर्वात प्राचीन नगर" म्हणून ख्याती असणाऱ्या (दमास्कस, बायब्लॉस, जेरिको, वाराणशी)ह्या शहरांचा देखील ह्या यादीत समावेश करण्यात आला आहे. Caveats to the validity of each claim are discussed in the "Notes" column.
प्राचीन जग
Continuous habitation since the Chalcolithic (or Copper Age) is possible (but difficult) to prove archaeologically for several Levantine cities (Jericho, Byblos, Damascus, Sidon and Beirut). Cities became more common outside the Fertile Crescent with the Early Iron Age from about 1100 BC. The foundation of Rome in 753 BC is conventionally taken as one of the dates initiating Classical Antiquity.साचा:Fact
नगराचे नाव | ऐतिहासिक विभाग/प्रांत | ठिकाण | सातत्याने मानववस्ती असल्याच्या नोंदी | नोंदी |
---|---|---|---|---|
दमिश्क | लेव्हांत | सीरिया | चालकॉलिथिक | Excavations at Tel Ramad on the outskirts of the city have demonstrated that Damascus was inhabited as early as 8000 to 10,000 BC.[१]साचा:Dubious However, Damascus is not documented as an important city until the coming of the Aramaeans around 1400 BC. See reference for presence of urban life among cattle herders at this date — also due to land fertility and constant water source.[ संदर्भ हवा ] |
जेरिको | लेव्हांत | वेस्ट बँक | चाल्कोलिथिक काळ (इ.स.पू. ३००० पूर्वी) | Traces of habitation from 9000 BC.[२][३] Fortifications date to 6800 BC (or earlier), making Jericho the earliest known walled city.[४] Evidence indicates that the city was abandoned several times, and later expanded and rebuilt several times.[५] |
बॅब्लिओस | लेव्हांत | लेबॅनॉन | चाल्कोलिथिक काळ (इ.स.पू. ५००० पूर्वी)[६] | Settled from the Neolithic (carbon-dating tests have set the age of earliest settlement around 7000[७]), a city since the 3rd millennium BC.[६] Byblos had a reputation as the "oldest city in the world" in Antiquity (according to Philo of Byblos). |
सिडॉन | लेव्हांत | लेबॅनॉन | इ.स.पू. ४००० [८] | There is evidence that Sidon was inhabited from as long ago as 4000 BC, and perhaps, as early as Neolithic times (6000 - 4000 BC). |

गाझियांटेप | अनातोलिया | नैऋत्य अनातोलिया प्रांत, तुर्कस्तान | इ.स.पू. ३६५०[ संदर्भ हवा ] | This is disputed, although most modern scholars place the Classical Antiochia ad Taurum at Gaziantep, some maintain that it was located at Aleppo. Furthermore, that the two cities occupy the same site is far from established fact (see Gaziantep). Assuming this to be the case, the founding date of the present site would be about 1,000 BC.
