Vaucluse 2

Then we headed to the next town, Gordes, and on the way we saw a number of prehistoric structures called Bories. We stopped and looked at the intricate structures, made only of flat rocks carefully fitted together with no mortar or even smaller rocks in the chinks. Whole large villages are constructed this way, and modern houses have been made in and amongst them, in some cases actually attached to the prehistoric bories and making use of them today.
