The grave is obviously that of one of my forefathers and I want the remains put back exactly where they were found, together with all his possessions, and the whole area declared a holy site.

These latecomers, Romans, Danes, Saxons and Normans have got to learn to respect aboriginals.

Since the date of arrival of the Celts in the British Isles is very much open to dispute, and could have been either before or after the date of this grave, it would be very interesting to know whether or not the grave is Celtic.

How old does a grave have to be in order for digging it up is considered archeology instead of grave robbing?

I hate to say this Clive but if you knew how silly you sound claiming relations to a 4000 year old skeleton, i would have to say you haven't progress very far up the evolutionary ladder!

I took a class a couple of quarters ago, intro to Archaeology.

Very interesting, got a B+ in the class...

What I did realize, was that I want to be cremated when I finally kack.

I don't want to be dug up, my skull put on a shelf in some laboratory for study at a later date...

He described the earrings as among the earliest kinds of metal object found in Britain. "They were very rare and the metals they were made from may have been imported," he said.

Or the gold may have come from the Dolaucothi gold mine in Wales which dates to the bronze age. Later on, the Romans found it rich enough to excavate millions of tons of ore.

I like an editor who understands economy. Just cut and paste the title and you’re good for 100 or more stories.
