I love the Wilts. White Horse hill is a wonderful place. Surprised this is a more recent find since the area is so well travelled on foot
Thats neat!
My cysts never have anything like that in them, tho...
Drives me crazy when they post stories like this and they dont have any or ENOUGH picts attached to the story.
Lots of interesting aspects to this 2011 discovery, for example the find included amber which isn’t found within 1000 miles of Dartmoor and previous to this discovery only 8 or 9 prehistoric beads had been found there. Here it was at least 150 beads. The woven bag that had contained the beads and the leather bag with the human remains were in excellent condition. Also they discovered layers of volcanic ash - if this involved an eruption from a volcano in Iceland the ash fall would have had to travel a heck of a long way - it would be like if Mt. St Helens deposited ash in Pennsylvania.
