'Ain Ghazal, an archaeological site in Jordan, dates back to the Neolithic period. Discovered in the 1970s, it wasn't until a decade later that excavations began. Throughout these excavations, archaeologists unearthed insights into the lifestyles of 'Ain Ghazal's prehistoric inhabitants. More astonishingly, they uncovered some of the earliest known human statues at the site.<\/p>\n
