I'm not sure how it's gonna "rewrite history" beside the history of that place. Continous habitation from neolithic to iron ages isn't even unprecedented, hell there are places that are inhabited continously from neolithic to today, like Damascus. Not even the article offers explanation for that sensationalist headline.

yeah the headline is a little bombastic, but the article itself was interesting
