      What about Kashi (varnasi) India. Or ayodhya, Mathura, vrindavan, and others in India? Aren’t they like more than 8000 years old

      Shouldn’t Tyre be on this list as well? And why aren’t Lebanon and Palestine red?

      Plovdiv is older than Argos. There is also Sofia, which should be up there.

      My city Heraklion is apparently inhabited since 7000bc so yeah prob the map is kinda shit

      Varna 🇧🇬 has been inhabited for at least 3000 years with traces going back over 7000 years because of the oldest processed gold treasure on the planet dating back to 4600 BC

      I call this bullshit or rather „based on data we currently have but we are sure this isn’t the correct list“.

      Are there any among these that have continued to exist as cities without interruption?
      For example, I’ve heard that Athens was a small village during the Ottoman Empire.

      I couldn’t work out what the capital city of Syria was the other day. My two Syrian friends were in the room, but I didn’t want to seem stupid and so refused to consult them.

      After a while (and some poor guesses on my part) they started to get frustrated with me and just blurted out “Damn, ask us!” However, out of stubbornness I still refused to get the answer from them. So, unfortunately, I’ve still got no clue as to what the capital of Syria is.

      Highly debatable. Which is the source? And…ATHENS?!?!?!?! ☠️☠️☠️

      So, someone took the Histories by Herodotus and wrote all the names they found in the Greco-Persian war

      Israel is making sure at least half of these cities don’t have any more ruins from those eras

      Athens was famously abandoned by the Athenians and razed by the Persians in the mid-5th century BC. It has therefore not been „continuously inhabited“.

      I’m partial to the European entries. Plovidiv and Athens have such gravitas. Not to detract from any of the others.

      My hometown, Stara Zagora, is 90 km from Plovdiv. It has neolithic settlement dating back to 6000 BC as well but it became official town with Trajan, named after him (Augusta Traiana). So much younger as a significant settlement.
