Skara Brae

Skara Brae is an ancient Neolithic village located on the Orkney Islands in Scotland, believed to have been inhabited around 3000 BC. It is one of Europe's best-preserved prehistoric settlements, consisting of stone-built houses with furniture made from stone and whale bones. The site provides valuable insights into early human life, including their social structure, diet, and living conditions. It was abandoned around 2500 BC, likely due to changing climate conditions. Today, Skara Brae is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, attracting visitors interested in archaeology and the history of human development.
