What happened in the end? Nobody knows for sure. Some have argued that the villagers fled because of natural disaster, whether a storm or flood. Others argue it was abandoned gradually, eventually forgotten, and then naturally buried over the centuries.

Why was everything built from stone? Because there was a lack of trees and therefore wood on Orkney — they had no choice but to use stone. It is essentially because of this fact that Skara Brae had been so well preserved; wooden structures would not have lasted so long.

These houses were then connected by covered and paved passageways. The subterranean lifestyle was surely about keeping warm and dry during the long, cold, windy, wet, and harsh winters of Orkney.

There are ten structures in total, perhaps home to 100 people, who lived on livestock, crops, and seafood. Inside each house is furniture, including beds and cabinets and chairs and fireplaces and toilets, all made from stone. Rudimentary, but not unhomely.

Childe thought Skara Brae was from the Iron Age, but in the 1970s — using radiocarbon dating — it was finally established as a Stone Age village. People had lived here for about 500 years, from 3,100 BC to 2,500 BC. A miraculous prehistoric survival.

There were further studies done in 1913, but it wasn't until another storm in 1926 uncovered even more ruins that Skara Brae was properly excavated. An archaeologist called V. Gordon Childe led the work there and wrote a book about his findings.

A local landowner and amateur archaeologist called William Watt started a proper dig, and after excavating four houses he brought in an expert called George Petrie. By 1868 the importance of the discovery — which some claimed to have known about for years — was clear.

Orkney is the name of an archipelago just off the coast of northern Scotland. It was here, in 1850, that a colossal storm partly destroyed a grassy hill by the sea. When locals investigated they discovered that it had revealed what seemed to be walls made of large stones.

174 years ago there was a huge storm in northern Scotland, and it uncovered something strange. From beneath the soil emerged a perfectly preserved village older than the Pyramids, and it even had furniture. This is the 5,000 year old story of Skara Brae...

Momentum is seemingly accelerating for President Joe Biden to pull out of this year’s elections. Should Biden indeed step aside, traders are likely to boost their search for havens as US politics becomes more volatile, and to reconsider so-called Trump trades. Overnight at least, the US dollar was the standout performer.

Mt. Gox’s administrators are returning a hoard of Bitcoin to creditors in stages. Traders are uncertain about how much of the $8 billion haul will end up being sold, and separately weighing the risk of disposals by the US and German governments of seized Bitcoin.

“The likelihood of a stronger Democratic candidate replacing Biden who might not be pro-crypto is a factor,” said Richard Galvin, co-founder of hedge fund Digital Asset Capital Management. “A bigger reason in the short term for the Bitcoin weakness is the overhang from Mt. Gox, and government selling.”

The largest cryptocurrency fell as much as 2.7% on Thursday before paring some of the drop to trade 2.4% lower at $58,092 as of 9:20 a.m. in London. Smaller tokens such as Solana and meme-crowd favorite Dogecoin also sank.

A third-straight daily slide in Bitcoin took the digital asset close to levels last seen in February amid challenges including US political drama and the potential for disposals by creditors of the failed Mt. Gox exchange.
