For a second, I thought this was a story about an old geezer who lost the secrets surrounding a nuclear test.
(maybe your screenname helped put that thought in my mind...)

Whalebone? Were there whaling ships that long ago or did they just wait for a carcass to wash up on shore?

Can't do that in America. Find some old bones, and you have to turn them over to the nearest Indian tribe, who will promptly bury them again. Only old bones you can study are those of European settlers.

Gristhorpe Man The folks at the "Gristhorpe Man" web site sure have gone to lengths not to post any interesting photos or information.

blam = Lamb, a fine olde English name. (Ahem, wouldn't hurt a flea) Over the years I've come to look at you as a keeper of the flame, not a flea stomper by any means. THANK YOU MUCH! I really do love your posts, your insight and your knowledge.
Sunken, that goes for you too! Thank you. Your hard work is appreciated. The pings I love the most come from you.

Gristhorpe Man, one of the best preserved examples of human remains buried in a hollow oak tree trunk, Like the Grammies, methinks they are creating too many, overly narrow, categories.
If they would just leave it at "human remains buried in a tree trunk"...
The skeleton still has some remains of the man's brain and teeth which have been preserved since he died 3,500 years ago.
Doing better than some of our "government leaders", though I'm afraid his current condition is more likely to have him voting Democrat than Republican.
Tests will also be conducted on an animal skin the corpse was wrapped in as well as a whalebone and bronze dagger and food which was buried in the coffin.
Then again, the lack of respect for environmental issues may tip the scale back to the Republican rolls.
"While we will not be able to put a name to him, we are hopeful of finding out a great deal more about his past through this scientific research. Joking aside, it would be interesting if they could do a study similar to that of Cheddar Man, to look for descendants.
