“The decorated pots are almost ubiquitous across Europe, and could have been used as drinking vessels or ceremonious urns.”

“almost ubiquitous”? Either it’s ubiquitous or it’s not.
“ceremonious urns” - so the urns are a bit stuffy and officious?

J-school again flashes its a$$.

Looks like he’s actually British, based on the teeth.

The three bodies were a man, a woman, and a teenager.

Why don't they say if the teenager was male or female? They didn't want to presume its gender identity?

These are bound to be fragmentary, and, the younger the indiv, the less there is to figure it out.

[seabeeson]

There can be only one.

[Cronos]

3 KYA means it is pre indo European

[Tailback]

Aquatic bints either!

[Freedom4US]

Watery tarts.

Might be an improvement over what we have now, some have suggested. Hm.

[SunkenCiv]

Well, the honest truth is that we wouldn't necessarily paid much attention to this discovery had it not been for its remarkable state of preservation and beauty. However, here we have a pinhole introduction to yet another 'culture' and an insight to what must be a forerunner to what we now recognise as a Celtic aesthetic, from which is derived much of the stylistic cues used in romantic fantasy illustrations and films. The Lord of the Rings connection is not so frivolous maybe!
