PRE-HISTORIC ARCHITECTURE





Prehistoric  architecture  has  a  tremendous  contribution  even in  our  modern  architecture.  Human  started  from  nothing  and  might  have    lack  of   idea  which  they  changed  in  time  goes by. Meanwhile  in  ancient  architecture  structure  many  mysteries  that  how  it  form,  some  question how  and  when  it  built  for   example  like  stonehenge   found  in  England    which one  of  the prehistoric   monument.  Many  speculation    was  exist and  often  Anthropology  spent  time   to   study   some    of  those   structures  but  it  no  precise  time    when  it  totally  built  and how    of  those  huge  stone  blocks    with  tons  of  weight    and   putted  at  the   top,  that  was   really a  wonder,    people  lived  during    that  time    of  neolithic   and  mesolithic  ages  has  great  intelligence  like   what    they  have made    with  the   only  used  of  massive   forces.
Furthermore,  make  me   wonder  that how  they   brought  those  stone  blocks  from  a   hundred  miles  away  and   what   probably  their  purpose  and   how  is  true  that   stonehenge  used  for   astronomical  observation  or  a   sacred  site.  In  addition,  how   people  make   perfect   circle   and   what  tools  they  usually  used  to  make  massive  trilithons  which  is  very  hard stone.  Whereas,  it  simply  symbolizing  the  artistic  mind  of  human  that  ages.  People  begun   to  focus  in  development,   they   usually  learned  how  to  make   crafts  but   before  that  they    only  used    stone tools  for  gathering  food  and  plants   used  for   hunting  wild  animals  and  even  to  make  their  own  shelter.  The  changes  should   brought  them  to  choose  in  a  place  to  settled  where  they  improve  or  more  on  gathering.  It  was  a  majestic  skills   during  a   thousand  years  ago  that  they  made  pottery  and  the   development  of  continues  to  writing.
Prehistoric  human  skills saw  in  some  caves  where  paintings  cultivated  in  stones,  perceivable how  they precisely  lived.  Another   great   skills  of   human  in  that  ages  was  they   built  structures  like  walls   and  shelters   where  made  of   muds  and  strongly  hold  to  the  whole   structure.
Nowadays  human  adapt  some  idea  and  may  be  a  little  bit  similarity   in  prehistoric  structures    design   and  even  materials  used  at  that  time   commonly  use  in  modernist  structures  like  bricks  and   different  style  of  stones.  nevertheless,  the  enthusiastic  mind  of  humans  could  have  been  bring  to  futurerist or  modernist  design  which  started  from  a  prehistoric  civilization  idea.
