High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The wall of Jericho, also referred to as Sultanian is a Pre-Pottery Neolithic A (PPNA) defensive wall dated to approximately 8000 BC. It is thought to be the first city wall ever built. It surrounded and protected a Neolithic settlement which contained anywhere from 2000 to 3000 people. The wall was complemented by a stone tower built into it. The tower had stairways and is thought to have reached a height of ten meters. The wall is thought to have been built in order to prevent floods but the height of the wall (approximately 5 feet (1.5 m) thick and 12 to 17 feet (5.2 m) high) as well as that of the tower suggests a defensive purpose as well. Furthermore, the construction of such a project implies some sort of social organization, division of labour, and classes.
