Ruins of 7,000-year-old city

Posted in: ECCANDC
This is truly an amazing story about a long lost city in Africa. The oldest city in the world. The first man on Earth was a black man and all other men on Earth are directly linked to the Black man. This is a scientific and historical fact.

So it is true to say, that all men/women on the earth are original black people? That is truly a new thought, but supported in scientific and historical fact. Something to think about? whether you accept it or not?... Knowledge is Power!

CAIRO (AFP) - A team of US archaeologists has discovered the ruins of a city dating back to the period of the first farmers 7,000 years ago in Egypt's Fayyum oasis, the supreme council of antiquities said on Tuesday.

''An electromagnetic survey revealed the existence in the Karanis region of a network of walls and roads similar to those constructed during the Greco-Roman period,'' the council's chief Zahi Hawwas said.

The remnants of the city are ''still buried beneath the sand and the details of this discovery will be revealed in due course,'' Hawwas said.

''The artefacts consist of the remains of walls and houses in terracotta or dressed limestone as well as a large quantity of pottery and the foundations of ovens and grain stores,'' he added.

The remains date back to the Neolithic period between 5,200 and 4,500 BC.

The local director of antiquities, Ahmed Abdel Alim, said the site was just seven kilometres (four miles) from Fayyum lake and would probably have lain at the water's edge at the time it was inhabited.
