Skara Brae is one of Europe’s best-preserved prehistoric villages, built around 3180 BC on Orkney’s wild west coast, older than Stonehenge and the Great Pyramids of Giza. Buried beneath sand for centuries and revealed by a storm in 1850, its stone homes with beds, hearths and drains - still stand, offering a rare glimpse into life 5000 years ago. Now part of the Heart of Neolithic Orkney alongside Maeshowe, Ring of Brodgar and Standing Stones of Stenness. #skarabrae #highlandertours #scotland |

Skara Brae, located on the Orkney Islands of Scotland, is one of Europe’s best-preserved Neolithic villages. Occupied between roughly 3180 BCE and 2500 BCE, the site consists of eight stone built houses linked by covered passageways. Its remarkable preservation owes much to being buried under sand for millennia, protecting the structures from erosion. Each house featured stone furniture, including beds, hearths, and shelves, offering a rare glimpse into prehistoric domestic life. The village lik

Skara Brae is a remarkable Neolithic village located on the Orkney Islands in Scotland, dating back to around 3100 BCE. This makes it older than both the Great Pyramids of Giza and Stonehenge. The site was inhabited by prehistoric people who constructed stone houses with impressive features, such as built-in furniture, stone beds, and hearths, showcasing their advanced building techniques for the time. The village was abandoned around 2500 BCE, likely due to changes in climate. The site was disc

Orkney's Skara Brae is Europe's best-preserved Neolithic village. A ferocious storm revealed a 5,000-year-old community of stone houses replete with luxuries and necessities: “they were built by people who had culture, who had style.” It's the perfect site for Beginnings, the first episode in Simon Schama's epic series A History of Britain. 15 hours of classic TV 📺 on BBC iPlayer | bit.ly/3GFjrZw | BBC Arts
