In 1850, a storm peels back the sand and uncovers a complete Neolithic village in the Orkney Islands. This is Skara Brae, and the level of technological and cultural sophistication discovered here will astound you. Intricately carved stone objects including beds and furniture, highly decorated stone balls, jewellery, gaming dice - this is an advanced culture that existed before the building of Stonehenge. Let us delve into this mysterious site together. There are so many unanswered questions - why was it abandoned seemingly so quickly?
