ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Monkodonja

Monkodonja is a very old city that was built by people who lived a long, long time ago. It is in a country called Croatia, which is far away. The city is very special because it looks different than the cities we see every day. It looks like a big circle with walls around it.

People who lived in the city a long, long time ago were called Illyrians. They were very good at building things, like houses and walls. They built Monkodonja to protect themselves from bad guys who wanted to hurt them.

Inside the city, there were houses where people lived. They didn't have things like we do now, like video games or cell phones. But they had things like pots and plates and tools to make things with. They also grew food in their gardens and had animals like cows and sheep.

Nowadays, people visit Monkodonja to learn about what life was like a long, long time ago. They can see the walls and houses that the Illyrians built and try to imagine what it was like to live there. It's kind of like going back in time!
