Iran Press/ Iran news: According to a report by the Research Institute of Cultural Heritage and Tourism, Iranian archaeologists in cooperation with Cambridge Centre for Human Evolutionary Studies have unearthed the stone settlements in the mountainous areas of Hezarjarib, located south of the Caspian Sea, in northern Mazandaran province in Iran, according to a Mehr News Agency report.
Elham Ghasidian, head of the excavation team, said the area which has long been a major corridor between the west and the east, especially the Caucasus Mountains and the Central Asia, is home to ancient civilizations with rich history.
She noted that people built caves and resided in the area, which is flanked by mountains on every side, due to the important geographical circumstances of the corridor.
The findings currently await further examinations and surveys for their exact date and other features.
