In 1850, a local Orcadian surveyed a storm-battered shoreline and accidentally discovered a Neolithic village hidden for millennia
A remarkable Neolithic village, Skara Brae, was unearthed by a storm in 1850. This ancient settlement, older than the Pyramids of Giza, offers a unique glimpse into early human life. Now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Skara Brae faces a new threat from the encroaching Atlantic Ocean and climate change.
