Kebaran culture

Kebaran culture refers to a prehistoric society that existed in the Levant region, particularly in modern-day Israel and Jordan, around 20,000 to 14,000 years ago, during the Upper Paleolithic period. This culture is characterized by its distinctive stone tool technology, including microliths—small, sharp blades used for hunting and gathering. Kebaran people were primarily foragers, relying on wild plants and animals. The culture is named after the Kebara Cave, where significant archaeological finds, including tools and evidence of early human habitation, have been discovered, providing insights into human adaptation during a time of environmental change.
