Oldest Buildings in the World – Infographic

 

Oldest Buildings in the World

In earlier times, early men used to live in naturally formed caves and hence they were called ‘cave men’. But as years passed by, people started using different materials to construct buildings and structures to live in. Pebbles, stones etc were the only materials available to them for constructing buildings.

Most of these earliest and oldest buildings have perished with time but some still remain on the face of the planet. The oldest of buildings which still remain today date back to about thousands of years and one example of such an old building is Barnenez which is a passage grave in France that was built in 4850 BCE. In the same year, Tumulus of Bougon was built in France and this is also the oldest building in the world.

Then came Tumulus Saint Michel in the year 4500 BCE. This is a Tumulus in France which is also known as one of the oldest buildings to have been constructed by man.

Knap of Howar is a house in Scotland that was built in the year 3700 BC and thus is also on the list of the oldest buildings ever to be made. Some other buildings on this list include Ggantija, West Kennet Long Barrow, Listoghil and Sechin Bajo.
