This one is very out there due to there being no evidence read as it's being asked from another's standpoint. But here we go.
Prior to the last ice age, Dolni Vestonice is most likely the earliest continuous hamlet or "settlement" of the upper paleolithic. It is located in Moravia at the foot of the Dvn Mountain. It was established around 27,000 years ago.
These people were more than just a group of prehistoric mammoth hunters and gatherers. They produced fabrics and porcelain statuettes. The ornate burial of an elderly woman hints at her status within the social structure of the populace. Elderly people were uncommon in Upper Paleolithic civilizations. With commerce to the Mediterranean, it had to be a tribal culture. They also possessed fishing nets, which they used for more than simply game hunting. Not your average hunter-gatherer camp, this one. To answer your query, it was a hamlet or settlement.
This community deserves recognition since it existed before agriculture. Ohalo II is an Upper Paleolithic hunter-gatherer community from around 19,400 years ago located in Israel's Rift Valley (Sea of Galilee). There were many brushwood houses there, each with a fireplace outside. There is evidence of some light gardening but only modest amounts of horticulture. The discovery of wild grain. In Hut #1, the floor had a large grinding stone imbedded in it. This occurred around 11,000 years before agriculture was first practiced.
This is the best I can recall for cities as an additional for you, although I wonder given the historical history of India and the rising sea levels. The oldest continually inhabited city in the world is supposedly Damascus, Syria. It was inhabited about 9000 BC, and during the Copper Age, it developed into a "city." According to Philo of Byblos, Blyblos Lebanon was another early "city." It was populated around 7,000 BC, and in the third millennium BC, it also developed into a "city."
Thanks for reading, hope this was somewhat or WAS helpful!
