Some of these structures include The Cairn of Barnenez. This structure is a prehistoric megalithic monument located in Brittany, France. It is considered to be one of the earliest of its kind in Europe and dates back to the Neolithic period. Today, the Cairn is over 72m long, 25m wide, and stands over 8m high. The Cairn of Barnenez is a massive construction, with each cubic meter containing around 1,500kg of stone. The first phase of the Cairn, called Cairn 1, required approximately 1,000 tons of granite and 3,000 tons of dolerite and had a volume of about 2,000 cubic meters. • Another on the list of the oldest buildings in the world is the Tumulus of Bougon. Located in France, the Tumulus of Bougon is a prehistoric burial site that consists of five different tumulus structures. Tumulus structures were built by placing earth or stone over graves in order to raise them. Burial mounds were created to honor the deceased, with the size of the mound often reflecting the importance of the person buried within. In addition, building up and around was easier than digging down through rock, stone, roots, and clay. The Tumulus of Bougon, one of the earliest forms of funerary architecture in the world, was utilized as a burial place to commemorate the departed ones from neighboring towns.
