Aleppo is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in
the world; it has been inhabited since perhaps as early as the 6th millennium
BC. Excavations at Tell as-Sawda and Tell al-Ansari, just south of the old
city of Aleppo, show that the area was occupied since at least the latter part
of the 3rd millennium BC; and this is also when Aleppo is first mentioned
in cuneiform tablets unearthed in Ebla and Mesopotamia, in which it is noted
for its commercial and military proficiency. Such a long history is
probably due to its being a strategic trading point midway between the
Mediterranean Sea and Mesopotamia.
Aleppo, Syria
