The Oldest City No One Can Find || USA Sleeping History

Описание: The Oldest City No One Can Find || USA Sleeping History

Every civilization began somewhere. But what if the world’s first city — the birthplace of architecture, belief, and community — has already been lost?
In this calm and cinematic episode of Sleeping History, we journey to uncover The Oldest City No One Can Find — a forgotten chapter of humanity buried beneath millennia of silence.
Archaeologists trace this mystery across the ancient Near East — from Göbekli Tepe in modern-day Turkey, built around 9,500 BCE, to Jericho, one of the earliest walled settlements on Earth. These sites challenge what we thought we knew about civilization: that people could gather in complex societies before agriculture, writing, or metal tools.
Yet for every city unearthed, there are others still missing — ancient river settlements washed away, early coastal communities now submerged, and proto-urban centers erased by shifting climates. The evidence suggests that the world’s first great city may still lie undiscovered, somewhere beneath layers of soil, sand, and myth.
