2. Loch Tay/Crannog

Now, this is indeed one of the most bizarre things i ever seen. Sort of straight out of some fantasy novel. It appears the Neolitic people build houses on the loch! They are called crannog. The explanations given were mostly for protection and status purposes. "Look at me, i live on water!", that kind of status -.- Only the chiefs show off.


A reconstructed version.


Model.


Tools of trade.



Lighting fire.






Inside the crannog. Nothing spectacular.



The view of Loch Tay.



Not really impressed. Only impressed by its stupidity. The worst ever is a grave inside a pyramid. Whats the point in doing that? Not just 1, but dozens, for dead people.
Not shelters, not granaries, not houses, but tombs. -.-

Pyramid x dead kings = heritage?
Useless x useless = useless.

Imagine what the resources and manpower could have been used for. Kings can be dumb as dogs.

The End. Next, an ancient capital of scotland.
