Tell es-Sultan is an archaeological mound site in the West Bank, with a history going back to the Natufian Culture, to at least 10,000 BC. But this mound is something special because what its hiding is in fact the ancient city of Jericho.
Before excavations began, you would be forgiven for thinking it was just a natural hill at first glance, but the hill itself is made up of many layers of collapsed architecture, mainly mudbrick, and over the years, excavations have uncovered the long and complex history of this very ancient city.
Watch this video to learn more about this 11,000-year-old stone structure, as old as, or even older than some parts of Gobekli Tepe and Karahan Tepe.
