European History Explored

While civilization was gaining pace in Europe as long back as 5000 BCE and the presence of a society could be traced way back, the Greeks still considered most of the Europeans who were not Greeks to be barbarians.
Megalithic tombs came into existence in Europe by 4300 BC and by 3500 BC, farming was a mainstream occupation that existed throughout the continent. By the time Europeans entered into 2000 BC, bronze work had been introduced to the people of the continent by the Wessex culture and by 1860 BC, one of the most impressive and mysterious architectures of the world – The Stonehenge - began taking form in Europe.
