The Dalma, the Jeitun, and the start of the Anau

Happy New Year! We start off 2025 by talking about the Dalma culture and its spread from the banks of Lake Urmia. We discuss their pottery, mixed life ways, their settlements, and their trade. We also cover the end of the final part of the Jeitun culture. The spread of their sites and speculate on their influence and trade with their neighbors. Finally we cover the abandonment of Jeitun itself, and the establishment of several site around the same time including Anau, which will grow into another cultural nexus in Central Asia.Twitter/X: https://x.com/WarAdRevPodYouTube: https://youtu.be/5InccYjYmms
