Europe's first farmers were also its first carpenters
- madaxe_again 12y agoInteresting, but wrong about this being the earliest carpentry. I'm assuming the author has never heard of Star Carr, which, rather than being neolithic, is mesolithic, and has worked wooden structures dating to ~8700 BCE - they found a jetty/pontoon/whatever platform on the edge of a lake, made from planks of Willow. So yeah, I'll see your 3000BCE structure and raise 5700 years. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Carr http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Carr
