New Findings in Theopetra Cave Shed Light on Neolithic Era in Greece

Oct 14, 2020

The Theopetra Cave in Thessaly, Central Greece, was formed in the Upper Cretaceous period, 137,000,000 – 65,000,000 years before the present time. The cave that was created in the limestone there has been inhabited since the Middle Paleolithic period, and new findings give new insight into the lives of those early peoples.

According to archaeologists, the cave is likely to be the place of the oldest human construction on earth, as findings indicate that the shelter was inhabited as early as 130,000 years ago.

It's a very old cave, as mentioned in the article there is evidence that it was inhabited by Neanderthals in the paleolithic.

What is not mentioned in the article, it's that the settlement was developped differently in each human age. So, neolithic additions date to the neolithic era and so on.
