Jericho's Walls

Jericho's Walls refer to the ancient fortifications surrounding the city of Jericho, one of the earliest known settlements. These walls, dating back around 9,000 years, were remarkable for their size and construction, offering protection and symbolizing the city’s strength. Archaeological evidence suggests these fortifications played a key role in early urban development. The story of the walls' fall, as described in the Bible, is a famous example of how monumental architecture can become a symbol of both physical and psychological victory. Today, they serve as important archaeological and historical insights into early human civilization.
