The region of present-day Israel has a rich and ancient history, with the first known inhabitants dating back to the Paleolithic era, around 1.5 million years ago. Early human fossils and tools found in the area indicate that it was one of the earliest sites of human habitation.
During the Neolithic period, around 10,000 years ago, agricultural communities began to form. One of the earliest known settlements is Jericho, one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world.
Around 3,000 BCE, the Canaanites emerged as the dominant culture. They built city-states and engaged in trade across the Mediterranean. The Canaanites are known for their advanced art, architecture, and the development of the early alphabet.
