Ancient lost city uncovered in Israel was the 'New York City' of its time. - NBCNewsMACH
Archeologists recently discovered an ancient lost city north of Tel Aviv. This large, 5,000-year-old city, bustling with around 6,000 people, was the"early Bronze Age New York," of the region and likely one of the first complex cities in what is now Israel, according to excavation directors at the Israel Antiquities Authority.
The archeological site, En Esur, located near the valley of Wadi Ara in northern Hasharon, is around 35 miles north of Tel Aviv, and has been undergoing excavations for the past couple of years in preparation for the construction of a new road. During these excavations, archeologists discovered the ancient city — one of the largest to be uncovered in Israel, which is surrounded by a fortification wall, according to a statement from the Israel Antiquities Authority. The city's intricate design of residential and public areas, streets and alleys points to the organized society and social hierarchy that may have existed at the time, according to the statement.
