Baaz Rockshelter
Baaz Rockshelter is a prehistoric archaeological site in Syria. Located in the foothills of the Anti-Lebanon Mountains about 50 km northeast of Damascus, the site consists of a small rock shelter favourably situated overlooking the nearby plains and springs. Excavations have revealed that it was intermittently occupied during the Upper Palaeolithic, Late Epipalaeolithic, and Pre-Pottery and Pottery Neolithic.
The site was discovered in 1999, and excavated by a team from the University of Tübingen between 1999 and 2004.
