This undated handout photo provided by the Department of Archaeology University College Cork, in Cork Ireland, Hovhannes Partevyan, measures a well preserved and complete shoe found in a cave in Armenia, watched by Boris Gasparian of Armenia's Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology, left, Dr Ron Pinhasi, of University College Cork, second from right, and Dr Guy Bar-Oz, Zinman of the Institute of Archaeology, University of Haifa, Israel, right. The cow-hide shoe dates back to 3,500 BC, making the footwear 1,000 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt and 400 years older than Stonehenge in Britain.

What is thought to be the world's oldest shoe, a preserved 5,500 year old cowhide piece of footwear that was discovered in a cave in Armenia, is seen in a photo released after its discovery by an archaeology team from University College Cork June 9, 2010. The shoe, dating from 3,500 BC, is the equivalent of a women's European size 37 (US size 7), but researchers say it could have fit a man living at that time.
