Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Stati Uniti
The house found at the Star Carr archaeological site in 2010 is not only the oldest known dwelling in the United Kingdom, but it is most likely the oldest house in the world that has been discovered so far. A team of archaeologists from the universities of Manchester and York also uncovered a wooden platform, which they believe is the oldest example of carpentry in Europe. According to archaeological research, the remains of the house have been carbon dated to about 8500 BCE. The people who lived here were hunter-gatherers who came to the what are now the British Isles while they were still connected to continental Europe.
