The earliest known civilizations arose in Mesopotamia between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in modern-day Iraq, Persia in modern day Iran, the Nile valley of Egypt, the Indus Valley region of modern-day Pakistan and North India, and the parallel development of Chinese civilizations in the Huang He and Yangtze River valleys of China.
Smaller civilizations arose in Elam in modern-day Iran, and on the island of Crete in the Aegean Sea, as well as the Olmec civilization and the Caral civilization in modern-day Mexico and Peru.
The Mesopotamian civilization of Sumer is officially is believed to have begun around 4000-3500 BC. It ended at 2334 BC with the rise of Akkad, and is the world's first civilization.
The Egyptian civilization of the Nile Valley started at around 3200 BC. It ended at around 343 BC, at the start of the Achaemenid dynasty's control of Egypt. This is one of the three oldest civilizations in the world.

Hi, I think you should add the Mi'kmaq from North America to one of your oldest civilizations in the world. The earliest found to date encampment is from 8400 BC. Google it if you would like, "Debert Mikmaq Encampment" Or Google "Mikmaq Timeline"
you need to LIST the freaking civilization reres
As per the latest findings the oldest civilization could be the civilization in the gulf of cambay where there are some archaoelogical findings with carbon dating back to more than 7500BC which means older than 9500 years old. Also it is being said that the civilization which was present in the gulf of cambay could be 12000 years older
You need to update your site.
Gobekli Tempe is way older.
The oldest civilization is kumari kandam(Atlantis) at present day Tamil nadu , india...
Kumari Kandam is an imaginary place. Didn't exist. Neither did Atlantis(which was initially posited as being in the Atlantic Ocean.
Nice Try.
Japan underwater cities more then 10500 bc and Turkey have a city that was filled with sand etc and said to be between 30000 and 50 000 years old you can verify if you want :-)
Some of you people really need an education in history. The oldest civilization in the world is Mesopotamia, Sumeria, Akkadia,Babylon and Assyria. Samuel Kramer named this land in his book the cradle of civilization. There is nothing in the world older than these empires....and that is a fact. period
