Researchers examined one of the most extreme places in the world, where the mysterious Neolithic structure known as the “Gate of Hell” was discovered in Saudi Arabia. There are more than 400 architectural works in this region, whose age is estimated to be approximately 9000 years.


This area is part of one of the most spectacular volcanic landscapes in Saudi Arabia, formed by volcanic eruptions over the last five million years. The last significant eruption here occurred between 600 and 700 AD, according to NASA.

Scientists were surprised to discover hundreds of 9,000-year-old structures in satellite images. The structures later identified by archaeologists resemble traps used to hunt wild animals. However, scientists believe that ancient people actually used these structures to tame wild animals. This means they have lived here for a long time. Source
