5500 B.C.E. Ú HISTORY OF WINE  in PERSIAN CIVILIZATION

Wine-making began 2,000 years earlier than previously thought thanks to recent archeological discoveries and evidence. The wine has a complex and detailed history from its development to the spread of wine production methods throughout the world. The earliest and oldest archaeological finding of wine-making & production comes from an area in Persia called Hajji Firuz Tepe (A Neolithic village site in northern Iran). Here, archeologists discovered the first wine press along with an amphora (a large vase with a narrow neck used primarily to store wine and olive oil) that was layered with the residue of tannin and tartrate crystals, both of which are found in wine. Carbon dating estimates that these artifacts are over 7000 years old. The Iranians exported/traded wine as far as southern Europe, Egypt, India, and China.
