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.

LOL True that! Skulls like granite.

My mostly Scot descended husband had a torque converter bounce off of his head when he was in his 20's. He still has the dent, but didn't even phase him otherwise.

I survived a head injury that would have killed mere mortals.

About 15 (or so) years ago I had both feet go straight out from under me in an icy parking lot and went straight back on my head.

Cracked my skull but good.
Blood everywhere.
Have a palpable dent there to this day.

Never lost consciousness, got myself up and drove home.

The wife did let out quite a scream when she saw me though. She’s not the screaming type.

That’s not the first time either. Motorcycle accident in ‘69 cracked the helmet completely in half.

Yup. Dad was a Scot. I’m first generation American.
