Does anyone know what the second-oldest city in the world is?

From: [identity profile] volund.livejournal.com


There seem to be several exceptions and special cases (i.e., gaps in occupation, and that modern Cairo is essentially ancient Memphis, etc.) on that list. It seems Baghdad doesn't even make that list.

My first thought was Damascus (which is on the list); also Jericho.
