Yarmukian culture

A Pottery Neolithic culture of the southern Levant, among the first in the region to make pottery. It is named after the Yarmuk River near its type site of Shaʿar HaGolan, at the foot of the Golan Heights, where excavators found many clay and stone figurines.

It existed alongside other early pottery cultures further south.
