For Russia, it's Derbent, founded somewhere in the 8th century BC. Coincidentally, it also is the southernmost city in Russia and churka-ridden hellhole as well.

Matera in Basilicata (Italy). Known as the "City of the stones", Matera is one of the oldest cities in the world to be inhabited, with settlements dating back to about 10,000 years ago. In the caves around the "Gravine Materane", objects have been found that testify the presence of groups of hunters; in the Neolithic the settlements became more stable, as evidenced by evident traces of villages.

Maastricht (50 b.c) evidence of prehistoric inhabitation, but only became a real city when the romans settled it.

Apparently Lisbon is the oldest city in Western Europe, with presence dating back as far as 8000-6000BC. Around pic related.

And it was never bombed. Hence the urbanist disaster it is with its medieval donkey trails.

>And it was never bombed.
Pity. We need another 1755 but stronger this time, I hope the rulers weren't dumb enough to store all the important documents there after that disaster...

Béziers founded VIth century BC by the Greeks. Marseille (Massilia) is also of a similar age, founded also by the Greeks.
Nolan Butler
Did you see the archaeological finds from last year, pushing it further in to prehistory, to the point that it is actually older than Hedeby?

Tautavel may be seen as very old also. Very near the town, remains of a 350.000 years old homo erectus was found. That same place was populated between 690.000 and 60.000 BC at the very least.
Levi Gutierrez
Unless you count this fine example of indigenous civilisation... which we clearly don't because it's just a cave... in fucking Western Australia.
Kevin Lopez
As much as I hate fucking Plovdiv, I have to admit it is the oldest city in Bulgaria (8,000 years old).
John Russell
It depends what you call a city, many were already settled in the neolithic and are inhabited without discontinuity since then.
Dylan Cruz
Yes. If we're talking about villages then it's Courthézon, with settlers in 6000 BC.
Austin Lewis
city of Vis, or Issa in greek. There are oldest towns but they weren't considered cities back then Issa was city state with it's colonies like Pharos(Starigrad on Hvar Island), Asphalatos(present day Split)...
