The House of the Group of Blicquy
Dating from the fifth millenium before J.-C, the Blicquy group house is one of the first Archeosite reconstructions based on a discovery made at a place called Bonne Fortune in Irchonwelz (excavations 1978-1980).
This community housing in trapezoidal shape also includes storage spaces, a paddock and a workshop for cutting the silex. The central room with vents has got a cowshed and straw supplies on both sides.
You can see hanging pots used for food supplies. They are decorated with chevrons distinguishing them from the banded pieces of pottery.
From the architectural point of view, the Blicquy group farm has exactly the same characteristics as the one which came after the Danubian current. The narrowing of the west wall and the addition of a central supporting pillar will give the house its trapezoidal form.
