The Neolithic long house was a long, narrow timber dwelling built by the first farmers in Europe beginning at least as early as the period 5000 to 6000 Anno Domini BC . ref Rodney Castleden. 1987 ref This type of architecture represents the largest free standing structure in the world in its era. Longhouse Long house s are present across numerous regions and time periods in the archaeological record. It is thought that these Neolithic houses had no windows and only one doorway. The end farthest from the door appears to have been used for grain storage with working activities being carried out in the better lit door end and the middle used for sleeping and eating. Twenty or thirty people, could have lived in each house with villages of six or seven houses known. They first appeared in central Europe in connection with the early Neolithic archaeological culture culture s such as the Linearbandkeramic Settlement patterns Linearbandkeramic or Cucuteni culture . Structurally, the Neolithic long house was supported by rows of large timbers holding up a pitched roof. The walls would not have supported much weight and would have been quite short beneath the large roof. Sill beams ran in foundation trenches along the sides to support the low walls. A long house would measure around 20 metres in length and 7 metres in width. Examples The Balbridie timber house in what is present day Aberdeenshire , Scotland offers an outstanding example of these early timber structures. Archaeological excavations have revealed extant timber postholes that delineate the support pieces of the original structure.

Neolithic Pre Pottery Neolithic B PPNB is a division of the Neolithic developed by Dame Kathleen Kenyon during her archaeological excavation s at Jericho in the southern Levant region. The culture of this period differs from that of the earlier Pre Pottery Neolithic A period in that people living during this period began to depend more heavily upon domesticated animals to supplement their earlier mixed agrarian and hunter gatherer diet. In addition the flint tool kit of the period is new and quite disparate from that of the earlier period. One of its major elements is the wikt naviform naviform core. This is the first period in which architectural styles of the southern Levant became primarily rectilinear earlier typical dwellings were circular, elliptical and occasionally even octagonal. Pyrotechnology was highly developed in this period. During this period, one of the main features of houses is evidenced by a thick layer of white clay plaster floors highly polished and made of lime produced from limestone .
