Chogha Bonut

Chogha Bonut (alternatively, sometimes, Choga Bonut) is an archaeological site in southwestern Iran, located in the Khuzistan Province. It is believed that the site was settled as early as 7200 BCE, making it the oldest lowland village in southwestern Iran. The site was accidentally discovered in 1976 when the mound was in the process of being levelled for agribusiness development. Helene Kantor, then working at Chogha Mish nearby, hurried to the site and received a permit to investigate it.

Located at 32.2222, 48.505 (Lat. / Lng.), about 1 miles away.
