When was Orkney first 'colonized' or do someone at least know how old the

It's noted that the Faero Island had lots of sheeps running wild when the
first known ships passed by.
How old is the oldest known artifact found on any of the Faero Island?
There's a UNESCO World Heritage site there, Heart of Neolithic Orkney. I
thought everyone here might have heard of the houses at Skara Brae, and of
course Maeshowe, about 5000 years old. And of course the Ring of Brodgar,
but that isn't as famous.
