6. 1964 - The Animals - House of the Rising Sun

BRONZE AGE WELSH COPPER MINES:
Stone hammers found at twenty-six sites in Wales indicate the two main
concentrations of copper mining activity lay at Parys Mountain and on the Great
Orme in Llandudno, as well as in mid-Wales around Cwmystwyth and Nantyeira. The
Great Orme was the largest of these mines and was worked for over 1,000 years.
Great Orme Mines enter the Guiness Book of Records as the largest Bronze Age
copper mines in the world.
