Tests carried out on the bones which were found in December 2002, have shown that they date back to 170BC... about 1,500 years older than the 15th century ship.

...or perhaps their testing is faulty?

The man is thought to have been about 5ft 9in tall and very muscular.

It always amazes me how they can determine that by looking at bones.
