Archeology in Norway has so far unearthed the oldest permanent settlement in Northern by Tønsnes outside the north-Norwegian city Tromsø.
The houses are thousands of years older than the previously known settlements. The houses were inhabited for 9500 years ago.
this found is done in a future industrial area outside of Tromsø.
Archaeologist had expected to find traces of pitches in the region, but instead found a permanent settlement. the found challenges the notion that people do not live in the houses at the time.
-- It is quite unique in the northern context, says digging leader Marianne Skandfer to the Norwegian press agency NTB.
the founds will overturn it, which archaeologists previously thought to know about permanent settlements.
