In the News Today: The Near East, Archaeology, Anthropology, Prehistory, and Ancient History

Here are some of the top stories in the news about archaeology, anthropology, prehistory and Jordan. Please note that the news service searches on key words. This search uses the following keywords: "archaeology," "archeology," "Egypt," "Israel," "Amman," "Cyprus," "Turkey," "anthropology," and "prehistory" - if I include the word "Jordan" in the search string, I get mostly stories related to Michael Jordan or the NBA! So, I've had to substitute "Amman" instead.
