Evidence from Metsamor  has shown that metal processing was occurring as early as 5,000 BC in Armenia
while several hammered copper items have been found at nearby ancient Armenian Neolithic site of Cayonu, dated at 7,200 BC (9,200 years ago).
The very Civilization as we know it began with the Neolithic Revolution itself in Armenian Highland when the formerly hunter
and gatherers began to settle down, harvest wheat, domesticate animals and form communities that turned into towns and cities.
