The Yehudiya Forest Nature Reserve in the central Golan Heights, is shaped like a hand, the "wrist" of which is in the Bethsaida Valley and each of whose "fingers" is a flowing stream. The land slopes moderately westward from 400 to 100 m above sea level. The Yehudiya Forest itself covers some 30% dunams of the reserve. Its most common tree is the large Mt. Tabor oak, which sheds its leaves in winter. These trees grow at some distance from each other, interspersed with herbaceous species, Christ-thorn and terebinth trees, creating a forest-park landscape. Among the animals in the reserve are gazelles, wild boars, jackals, conies, Indian-crested porcupines and the Cairo spiny mouse. The skies reveal raptors such as kestrels, short-toed eagles, Bonelli's eagles, Egyptian vultures, buzzards, Griffon vultures and a large variety of song birds.

Looks similar to the megalithic art from the coast of the Red Sea in Egypt, or the eastern Sahara.

I don’t understand..

4,000 years ago is only 2,000 bc.

Back then Egyptians were in full force and the Sumerians were already a 2000 year old dying culture.

So a few scratched rocks just shows... That that area was not populated?

I thought the Levant or fertile crescent was the bridge between Egypt, the Indus Valley cultures and the sumerians/babylonians.. how come they can’t find more and older?

They may have their dates wrong by a few thousand years.
