Archaeologists have discovered an ancient human settlement in Tajikistan that dates back approximately 150,000 years.
Archaeologists from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the National Academy of Sciences of Tajikistan have discovered a multi-layered archaeological site in the Zeravshan Valley of Tajikistan. The site, named Soii Havzak, contains artifacts dating back as far as 150,000 years, making it a significant find for understanding early human settlements and migrations in Central Asia.
The discovery suggests that the Zeravshan Valley, known historically as a Silk Road route, was an important migration corridor for human species like Homo sapiens, Neanderthals, and Denisovans.
