Mt Carmel and Armageddon.

It took the Homo erectus two million years to reach the Fertile Crescent and to find this cave at the footsteps of Mount Carmel. Almost one million years he lived in this prehistoric cave in small groups of hunter-gatherers, learning to make stone tools and the use of fire. Finally about 11 thousand years ago he began to develop agriculture, learned to herd, domesticate animals and to create objects of art. On this land the homo sapience became the first man when he was sent out from Garden of Eden to work and sweat for his survival. Now let's follow him from this prehistoric cave to the other side of Mount Carmel, to the magnificent Tel Megiddo (Armageddon). By peeling back 25 layers of destroyed civilizations of more than seven thousands years, we will follow this man building the first temple to the god of fertility, god of sun, of war, and many others. Than creating the first wall, first settlement, town and Kingdome. The Fields of Armageddon, according to the New Testament, would be the arena of the battle between sons of light and sons of darkness at the end of the days. On this land the man had learned that the "God is one", and Mount Carmel became one of the four holy mountains together with Mount Moriah, Mount Sinai and Mount of Olives.
