  1. Taos Pueblo is older than quite a few old European buildings. If that foundation date of 1000 AD is right, they didn't even start construction on Notre Dame Cathedral for another 163 years.

  2. Wait, since Wyoming's oldest building was built out of dinosaur bones, wouldn't that make it the oldest in the country by quite a long shot?

  3. 12:30 Those New Sweden colonial log cabins (actually adapted from a Finnish design since Finland was ruled by Sweden at the time) were actually the basis for the standard American log cabin. I hope Abe Lincoln had time to thank the Swedish ambassador for ultimately inspiring his birthplace (Finland didn't become an independent country until 1917).
