it might make the village unique

But it almost certainly doesn't.

I understand why they have to stop and re-evaluate everything whenever they make a significant discovery, but I wish they wouldn't be so quick to equate "the oldest thing we've found so far" with "the oldest thing that ever was." The one thing we know for sure is that we don't know much.

Neat thing about living in the U.K is that you always have the feeling of being a shovel of dirt away from antiquities. I'm not the spooky sort but when I was based there in the 90's we lived in a small village that was full of history. Seemed to me that you could really feel it on foggy nights, especially after a couple pints of the pubs best ale. Loved living there.

Archaeologist Tom Addyman said: "People have always lived here, and have wanted to live here. Can't think of any other site that has that depth and layering of occupation."

Maybe Jericho, but I think Jericho was abandoned for some periods.

There are some villages in the Dordogne region of France that have floors of stones and pebbles laid down in the Paleolithic.
