Ness of Brodgar Scroll Stonehenge Position
by The site of Stonehenge in England until now claimed as a historic site that became the center of the most important Neolithic civilization in Europe. But the most important sites claim seems to be changing hands at Ness of Brodgar site newly excavated in Orkney Islands, Scotland.
14 new buildings on the site Ness of Brodgar who successfully excavated, and experts predict this site geothermal total number in the hundreds. The BBC called it a discovery of a lifetime.
“Excavation site Ness of Brodgar in Orkney the open window of confidence in the Stone Age,” said Neil Oliver, presenter BBC documentary ‘A History of Ancient Britain’. With a similar structure of the temple building, the experts believe Orkney sites can help modern man to understand the religious activities of Stone Age inhabitants.
Some parts of this temple complex was 800 years older than Stonehenge. The archaeologists also found several red zigzag line painting on the wall within the site are believed to be the oldest Stone Age art ever found.
Only ten percent of the area sites that have been studied, and it will probably take decades to be able to uncover all the mysteries of the sites located near the site of the stone circle Ring of Brodgar, Stenness stones, and surrounded by rocks previously believed plays three meters.
Nick Card, an archaeologist from the University of Highlands and Islands, said, “Sites like this is a dream of the archaeologists, and excitement about it never subsided. The discovery like this only happens once in a lifetime.”
