They think he was likely British because of the way he was buried
The fact that it took six blows to the head to kill him means he was probably a Scot.

To any freepers have any British ancestry whatsoever: you’re probably looking at the skull of a direct ancestor. And the only reason I say “probably” is we don’t know if the dead gentleman had kids. If he had a few kids, it goes up to a sure thing.
So sue someone for dishonoring the bones of your ancestor!
To: Pharmboy
He better get that thing looked at.

I clicked on this partly to see if archaeologists thought he was British because... of tea-stained teeth.
1066 was a pretty rough year for many of the English, probably none more so than this man.

“who took six sword blows to the top of his head before dying”
It it was a suspicious death of someone involved in a democrat political scandal the coroner would rule it a suicide.
