Discover the oldest lunar calendar in a field of Aberdeen shire

UK archaeologists have discovered the oldest lunar calendar, found so far, in a field of Aberdeen shire (Scotland). The yearbook is a series of 12 holes that appear to mimic the phases of the moon and the lunar months and is believed chosen about 10,000 years old.

Excavations at the site began a decade ago and the first hole was discovered in 2004.
