Welsh Neolithic
3000-1300BC
United Kingdom
From 3000 to 1300 BC, the Welsh Neolithic marked a period where farming and domestication of animals firmly set in, replacing hunter-gatherer practices. Communities constructed megalithic monuments and ceremonial sites, like the famous Stonehenge. Life became more sedentary, with more permanent settlements and a focus on harvesting and storing food. This era reflects Wales’s transformation from a nomadic society to a more settled one, with a profound spiritual connection to the land.
