The Most Astonishingly Old Cities On Planet Earth

Aleppo’s earliest inhabitants date back to 4,300 BC. Syria’s densely populated city houses a population of about 4.4 million residents. Though the erstwhile city is occupied by a more contemporary feel, its ancient roots remain untouched by archeologists. Though it was initially ruled by Greeks and Assyrians, it was later occupied Romans and Arabs. A majority of Aleppo’s ancient structures no longer exist owing to conflict within the region.
