Archaeologists uncover a massive Late Bronze Age settlement in Ireland, Brusselstown Ring, challenging the notion that Vikings built the first towns. With over six hundred suspected roundhouses, its the largest nucleated settlement in prehistoric Britain and Ireland. The site features two widely spaced ramparts, a large stone cistern, and test excavations reveal a boat-shaped, stone-lined chamber, potentially Irelands first ancient water cistern. This discovery could redefine early communities in the Atlantic region. Checkout Solipillow.com
