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"
ReplyDeleteyou need to LIST the freaking civilization reres
ReplyDeleteAs 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
ReplyDeleteYou need to update your site.
ReplyDeleteGobekli Tempe is way older.
The oldest civilization is kumari kandam(Atlantis) at present day Tamil nadu , india...
ReplyDeleteKumari Kandam is an imaginary place. Didn't exist. Neither did Atlantis(which was initially posited as being in the Atlantic Ocean.
ReplyDeleteNice Try.
No it is not...pls get ure facts right...
DeleteNice try;-)
Atlantis did exist. Get your facts correct! Stop spreading ignorance.
DeleteJapan 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 :-)
ReplyDeleteSome 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
ReplyDeleteperhaps all of you read about gunung padang in INDONESIA.
ReplyDeleteLOL.... This was interesting but made me laugh. I agree with many of you needing an education in history. The cradle of civilization - Mesopotamia is correct. These others have very questionable dating methods and need a lot more research! As we know, many "discoveries" are thrown out into the public's view before the "so-called facts" are known to be true. Many are found to be an embarrassment to the field once the truth is discovered. Don't jump on the band wagon of bad science. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's right!! The world is flat, the earth is the center of the universe, and civilization can't be older than 5,000 yrs, because that flies in the face of religion, even though our species of human has been on the planet for 200,000 yrs.
DeleteOnes opinion about who is right and who is wrong, is not for anyone to judge in so called facts. Remember that the British and French and many other sects, archeologists did what they did. Some didn't. Some where silenced. Just like the lie about religion. A Multiplied lie to be used for each culture. Instead of fighting of who is right and wrong. Can we all just come together and theorize all of our finding, to make sense of things. I get it, it's a hu-man nature to cause wars. But that's what holds to process. If history teaches us to be kind to the earth. To one another. To teach the future. Why cause wars to be on-top of a none god given throne.
ReplyDeleteWhat about the Thracian? The oldest golden treasure found on earth dates 5000 years ago in Bulgaria. Google it, seems no one mentioned this :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd also I agree about the city found under the sands of Turkey! Thank you for mentioning this, need to find whether they did some more research there. It was dated 10 000+ bc
ReplyDeleteGobekli Tepe in Turkey is not a city but a temple complex devoted to early worship. It is between 12000 - 14000 years old. There is no evidence of any housing or commerce thus, was not really a civilisation, i mean - is stonehenge a civilisation then?
ReplyDeleteLots of definitions of 'civilization', from writing to the wheel to living structures, etc. I vote for anything that shows evidence beyond a small band of related hunter-gatherers, which means Gobekli Tepe is the current winner at 12,000 years old. Probably bands of hunter-gatherers in a region with plenty of game and vegetation naturally occurring, all realized it 'must come from somewhere' and in our genetics they shared a 'greater being' mentality (probably an intellectualized form of the pack instinct seen in wolves, etc). Unrelated hunter-gatherers shared this belief and then probably put together Gobekli Tepe, which was so unique back then that any other hunter-gatherer tribe seeing it would join up as well, since it likely reflected beliefs they already had. No surprise that religion came before farming. When the next mini-ice-age hit, they probably thought it was a temporary thing, buried the place so they could come back, and moved closer to water (Tigris, Euphrates) where they could better do farming and domestication, since their 'entity' was no longer blindly providing. Curtain falls, time passes, and now we've got Muslims shooting and blowing everyone up, but for some reasons not other religions. So it goes.
ReplyDeleteYou boys always indicating the views and biased findings of anybody. Why dont you go for own research and place biaseless findings before the world! Throughout you never mentioned about civilisation of indian origine.
DeleteHi, Yes previously it was believed that Mesopotamia or Chinese civilization was the oldest. But the recent findings in India an underwater city of Lord Krishna in Gujarat has raised the an alarm of the need of rewriting the world's history. Hope to see an article soon on this.
ReplyDeleteLord krishna india lived around 3500 b.c.indian civilization is much older than that.

I have seen Gobekli Tepli on various history channels. The thing is that those massive stones again had to be moved by some way which is still not explained. I thought that it was speculated that the many circular buildings in this site stored something. But even if it was a religious center, people who had the sophistication to build it and the distance to travel to get to it must mark enormous communication skills as well as advanced architectural skills.
ReplyDeleteThe uses of this site by people can only be guessed. But dating it means a development of society even longer before it was actually built. Considering the earth itself is billions of years old, who can say when intelligent life came to exist on earth. It could have happened millions of years ago. We have no way of confirming it.
If we are just the latest or the result of a process of life, we may be the first with the capacity of completely destroying it(despite what Jeff Goldbloom says in "Jurassic Park"-"Life will find a way"). I hope not, but forces causing conflicts are lining up quickly as knowledge increases in the sciences. Think of advanced technology in weaponry, Crispr, worldwide communications in an instant, Worldwide Economic competition.
I also wonder, since we have so many people in our world today, if the small faction of the rich and powerful ever existed in such relative numbers prior to this. With so many people who think they can control everything around them, the tendency to push against other rich, by an insatiable need to become the richest and/or most powerful, also seems not a mentioned source of world destruction.
It is obvious to me that we need to have a reduction in world population in order to maintain our planet as a primary goal to unite the world. Although many religions say this is up to God, I don't think so. When there are too many of one species in an area, the rest suffer and are wiped out. But then without a food supply, the one species has to move on. We often limit this expansion by culling the invasive species out of an area. This culling should apply to all life, not just that which we can manipulate. So many refuse to turn this fact to mankind itself.
HOW we do that culling does not mean immediate killing of billions. But it does mean that we must take steps to limit births on a vast scale to avoid other violent forces that will do this. Certainly we have the knowledge to do what was originally thought could only be done using the representations done by the "Four Horsemen".
Religion must recognize that "Be fruitful and multiply" did NOT imply "With no limits." Such writings in fact never added "with no limits" in any form. Other sections of various scriptures point to controlling life in order to preserve people's existence. It is the ill interpretation by people that could once again wipe out much life on earth as it has been done in the past. It has most often been the simple pride, or the fact, that famous leaders, thinkers and men of religions refuse to admit that they could be wrong that has caused far too much pain in our history. It seems this pain suffering and death has, in fact, never been done for the actual "good of the people", but to preserve the power of the few.
