GB News: Archaeology breakthrough: 4,000-year-old fortified town discovered hidden by 'walled oasis'
Archaeologists have discovered al-Natah, a 4,000-year-old fortified town in the Khaybar oasis of northwest Arabia. The settlement, dating back to 2,400 BC, housed around 500 residents and featured a protective wall and multi-storey homes, but was abandoned around 1,400 BC for unknown reasons.
The findings, led by archaeologist Guillaume Charloux, highlight an alternative urbanization path in northwest Arabia compared to larger contemporaneous cities in Mesopotamia and Egypt. This discovery follows the recent unearthing of a Mayan city in Mexico using Lidar technology.
