| The earliest archaeological artifacts in Iran were found in the Kashafrud and Ganj Par sites that date back to the Lower Paleolithic era. Mousterian Stone tools made by Neanderthal man have also been found.[42] There are more cultural remains of Neanderthal man dating back to the Middle Paleolithic period, which have been found mainly in the Zagros region and less frequently in central Iran at sites such as Shanidar, Kobeh, Kunji, Bisetun, Tamtama, Warwasi, Palegawra, and Yafteh Cave.[43] Evidence for Upper Paleolithic and Epipaleolithic periods are known mainly from the Zagros region in the caves of Kermanshah and Khoramabad. Early agricultural communities such as Chogha Bonut in 8000 BC,[44][45] Susa (now a city still existing since 7000 BC)[46][47] and Chogha Mish dating back to 6800 BC.[48][49] started to form in the western Iran. Dozens of pre-historic sites across the Iranian plateau point to the existence of ancient cultures and urban settlements in the fourth millennium BC,[49][50][51] centuries before the earliest civilizations arose in nearby Mesopotamia casino en ligne francaisSightline Payments Online Casinos | |
