اربیل بین النہرین Iraqعراقی کردستان, عراق -2300 ! 6000 BC or earlier[30][31] The Citadel of Arbil is a fortified settlement in Erbil, Iraqi Kurdistan. The city corresponds to ancient Arbela. Urban life at Erbil (kurdish: Hewlêr) can be dated back to at least 6000 BC, and it is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world.
جبیل (Jubayl) سرزمین شام لبنان -5000 ! Chalcolithic (5000 BC or earlier)[32] Settled from the Neolithic (carbon-dating tests have set the age of earliest settlement around 7000[33]), a city since the 3rd millennium BC.[32] Byblos had a reputation as the "oldest city in the world" in Antiquity (according to Philo of Byblos).
