Tumulus of Bougon, France
The building was discovered in 1840 and it proved to be among science’s greatest interests. Protecting the monuments required the help of the
department of Deux-Sèvres in 1873. One of the most amazing things
they learned from the excavation is the fact that the oldest structures of the
building dates back to 4800 BC.

Knap of Howar, Scotland
This old building is originally part of a Neolithic farmstead. Radiocarbon dating analysis shows that the Knap of Howar has been standing ever since
3700 BC to 3100 BC or even up to 5500 years ago.
