Really old dead person ping.

He’s still dead, Jim.

“””In a gravel pit at Boxgrove, just outside Chichester, the remains of a man have been discovered, half a million years old.””

Re-write!!!

The remains of a man have been discovered. He is believed to have died 500,000 years ago.

Only a shin bone and two teeth

It's been many many, moons since Old Ben studied Anthropology but -- I don't think gender can be determined from just those remains.

Wow, what a great find!!

[LiteKeeper]

Amazing! one shin bone, and two teeth found 39 inches lower, and we have a man who died a half million years ago. Excuse we while I doubt the accuracy of this report.

I thought this was about Frank Lautenberg.

[Fred Nerks]

The associated fauna - notably some voles' teeth, show that the site is to be dated to a period before the 'Anglian' or 'Great' ice age, and should therefore be around 500,000 years old...

Should!

There's also could-be would-be and may-be...
