This is actually just a single shot. I think the people give a bit of scale to the building. There's plenty of history here in Ireland. This building is one of three such tombs in that area, all from around the same time. It's believed that this was the last built, so the others would be around 3300 BC or so. This makes them older than Stonehange in England, and older than the pyramids in Egypt.
