848 CY - Choirokoitia (1998)

Choirokoitia


"The Neolithic settlement of Choirokoitia, occupied from the 7th to the 4th millennium B.C., is one of the most important prehistoric sites in the eastern Mediterranean. Its remains and the finds from the excavations there have thrown much light on the evolution of human society in this key region. Since only part of the site has been excavated, it forms an exceptional archaeological reserve for future study."

乔伊鲁科蒂亚
"公元前7000至公元前4000年,乔伊鲁科蒂亚新石器时代人类聚落是地中海东部地区最重要的史前遗址之一。这里的遗迹和出土文物证明了人类社会在这一重要地区的演进。遗址仅挖掘了一部分,还有很多非凡古迹有待将来研究。"
