دراسة أنثروبولوجية-أثرية لمنطقة المشرق العربي القديم خلال العصر الحجري القديم

الملخص EN

The theme of the emergence of human beings in Africa and its spread in the world is one of most discussed and debated topics between the specialists in prehistoric and anthropology.

the Levant represents, by its geographical location, the first gateway of this spread, and it has been given great attention by researchers in this field since the beginning of the last century.

this interest was doubled after failing to obtain scientific results from archaeological excavations that were conducted in Yemen in prehistoric sites, in order to prove the hypothesis of human exodus from Africa through the straits of Gibraltar.

and the researchers are convinced that the process of human exodus from Africa and its spread in the rest of the word can only be understood through studying the Levant area.

therefore, we aim to reconstruct the archaeological-anthropological scene of the Levant during the Paleolithic, by focusing on study of human skeletons and the archaeological remains found in the same strata were the skeletons have been discovered, taking into account, the results of modern laboratory history to put these discoveries in the correct chronological framework.
