The Brits are WAY overdue for more serious digging in that whole region of the country. A lot has been found, but I think they've literally just "scratched the surface".

I can't wait to see the results of that DNA test. Hope they hurry up.

Pre-Abraham thus too early for either Celts or proto-Celts, thus too early for Israelites. Here's a local web site:

What's even more amazing is that many living Britons are descended from these fellows and other prehistoric guests of honor in the burial mounds that dot Britain.

I think I read a year or two ago that some man up in the Yorkshire Dales is the most direct living descendant of the former tenant of a Stone Age skull unearthed not far from where he lives. It's hard for Americans to understand how much archaeological evidence 4 or 5 thousand years of relative dense settlement can leave. You probably can stick a shovel (or a Bobcat) into the soil just about anywhere in England and come up with something of interest. The Barbican area of London, where the old Roman and pre-Roman structures were exposed by the Blitz, is fascinating.

LOL. You've taken to answering all my questions before I ask them. (Good work)

I think Cheddar man was the fellow I was thinking of! Sheesh, can't get much farther away from Yorkshire and still be on the mainland, can I? :blush:

...along with stone arrow heads and slate wristguards that protected the arm from the recoil of the bow.

Firearms having been outlawed, UK journalists must now make do with being ignorant of bows....

>>The Amesbury Archer  ---  Looks Hebrew to the artist"

>What makes him look Hebrew?

Process of elimination.  Does he look Oriental? No.

Does he look Negroid?   No.

Does he look (North or South) American Indian?  No.

Does he look European Celtic?  Yes, even though there were no people designated as Celts at this time.

Who were the Celts?  They were Hebrews/Semites/Israelites.  (See the 3-MINUTE HISTORY at my FR Profile below for the details.)

Abraham (2,000 BC) was a Hebrew.  (The word "Hebrew" simply means "stranger" or "wanderer").  Abraham came from a family of "Hebrews" in Ur, in what today is southern Iraq.  There were lots of Hebrews wandering around loose, at least that part of the world at that time.

So what did Abraham, a Hebrew, look like?  No one really knows, but you can work backwards to arrive at a reasoned estimate by looking at Abrahams offspring.  This is far from perfect, but is better than nothing:

To begin, Abrahams offspring are white, or "Causasian".  A quick look at some of Abrahams offspring gives the idea.  These offspring are all contemporary Jews:

Joseph Lieberman, Paul Newman, Ted Koppel, Harrison Ford, Efrem Zimbalist, Jr., Kirk Douglas, Kevin Costner, Stephen Breyer, Yitzhak Rabin, Michael Landon, Lorne Greene, Mike Wallace, Benjamin Netanyahu, William Shatner, Douglas Fairbanks, Cary Grant, Leonard Bernstein, Paul Simon, Ariel Sharon, David Frost, Morley Safer, Ari Fleischer,

Jack Benny, Alan King, Casper Weinberger, Carl Reiner, George Burns, Red Buttons, Sam Levinson, Bernard Goldberg, Robert Downey Jr., Dustin Hoffman, Michael Douglas, Peter Sellers, Tony Curtis, Edward G. Robinson, Wolf Blitzer, Mel Torme, Paul Wellstone, Peter Falk, Leonard Nimoy, Jerry Springer, Arlen Spector, William Cohen,

Barry Goldwater, Robert Rubin, William Roth, Howard Metzenbaum, Hyman Rickover, Robert Reich, Russ Feinberg, Stanley Mosk, Arthur Burns, Milton Friedman, Bill Kristol, Victor Borge, William Kristol, Warren Rudman, etc., etc, etc.

These Jews, which everyone agrees are Hebrews/Semites/Israelites just happen to look like and could easily be confused with their Israelite cousins, European and American whites who are of Celtic origin.  The Celts and the Jews are genetic cousins via Jacob/Israel. All are offspring from Abraham/Isaac/Jacob/Israel, and all are Hebrews, Semites, and Israelites.

This artist has drawn The Amesbury Archer to look like a modern white Celtic man, much like any other white European/American man today, so the artist apparently views the Amesbury Archer as a Hebrew.
