Old Towns

The Bulgarians have unearthed a dungeon of sorts. Beneath a hill they have discovered what very well may be the oldest town in Europe. They've given it a rough estimate of 4700 BC, which lands it about 6700 odd years ago. That lines up with early settlements of 9000 BC found in northern Turkey or thereabouts. They discovered walls, what seems to be a gate, and some form of ritual pits. The site is located near salt deposits and like as not the small town of 350 people mined for salt and traded it for other goods from others.

This looks like a good set up for a bad ass dungeon crawl. From Yahoo.
