In 1850, a farmer discovered a hidden village that surprised everyone because it was much older than the Great Pyramids of Egypt. This village, called Skara Brae, is often called the "Scottish Pompeii" because it was so well-preserved. Archaeologists believe that around 100 people lived there long ago. What makes Skara Brae special is that the houses were all connected by underground tunnels. Each home had its own stone door that could be closed, showing how carefully the people planned their village. This discovery gives us a rare look into how people lived thousands of years ago, long before many famous ancient sites were built. It helps us understand their daily life, how they stayed safe, and how they worked together as a community.
