    Bronze Age houses uncovered in Britain

    Bronze Age houses uncovered in Britain

    An interesting find near Cambridgeshire England- circular wood house dated back to ~1000BC.

    Archaeologists have uncovered Britain's "Pompeii" after discovering the "best-preserved Bronze Age dwellings ever found" in the country.
    The circular wooden houses, built on stilts, form part of a settlement at Must Farm quarry, in Cambridgeshire, and date to about 1000-800 BC.
    A fire destroyed the posts, causing the houses to fall into a river where silt helped preserve the contents.


    Pots with meals still inside have been found at the site.

    And who doesn't have pots standing around with 3,000 year old food in them?
