  1. Newgrange was built around 3200BC making it roughly 600 years older than the Pyramids in Egypt and 1000 years older than Stonehenge.


  2. Newgrange is older:

    Originally built between c.3300-2900BC according to Carbon 14 dates (Grogan 1991), this makes it more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge trilithons by about 1,000 years (although the earliest stages of Stonehenge are roughly contemporary with Newgrange).

  3. Newgrange.

  4. Newgrange Passage Tomb in County Meath epitomises all that is great about Irish archaeology. At 5200 years old, it is older than the pyramids of Egypt or Stonehenge in England
