I think that is highly controversial to say the least. I think the accepted consensus is Jericho is the oldest continuously inhabited city.
- iso1631 6y agoWikipedia says Jericho: "late 1st millennium BC" Athens: 5th–4th millennia BC Mind you I had a picnic yesterday at a village that was settled c. 1000 BC, and has evidence of people living there before then. It's nothing particularly special.
