Skara Brae

Skara Brae is a Neolithic settlement that was revealed on the shores of the Bay of Skaill after a sandstorm in 1850.

Each house, which was originally above ground, is identical in size and layout, which suggests there was no hierarchy in the settlement, and stones have been found that only come from another island, which suggests travel and bartering.

It was quite a special feeling to be looking down on a settlement that is older than Stonehenge and the Pyramids and is just how it was left 2,500 years before Christ when the settlement seems to have ended/failed
