Cheddar man looks like a Howardian Pict for sure. I want to start a cheese company whith cheddar man as a spokesman. So the first people to inhabit Britain and Ireland might have looked like this famous Welshman. "It's not unusual to split the skull of anyone....."

The heatwave/drought in the British Isles is revealing many unknown sites:

Research paper just released on an isotope analysis of the remains in burial pits in Stonehenge. The technique is interesting given that the bodies had been cremated so at one time any identification was believed impossible. Apparently the bones retain some markers that can be used to identify where the individual lived. In this case 10 of the 25 remains in one of the pits inside the circle (possibly a hole previously used to hold a stone) were not at all local, and the simplest explanation is that they came from the same area of Southwest Wales where the stones originated because the isotope analysis was consistent with living in area with the older bedrock of western or northern Britain. While the simplest explanation is SW Wales where the stone quarry has already been identified, I cannot help but notice that the areas of western and northern Britain with this older bedrock (Cornwall; Devonshire; Northern England; Scotland; and Ireland) also had stone circle monuments, so its possible that the remains were brought to Stonehenge based upon a religious community on the Irish Sea fringe. (And they had reason to believe the non-locals were cremated elsewhere and their remains brought to Stonehenge). I would love to see if they can test this theory. www.nature.com/articles/s41598-018-28969-8

Even more bizarre, the article hints on the possibility of some industrial type of civilisation that might have existed millions of years in the past. I am skeptical, but I like the concept.

The 'London Hammer' claimed to be over 100 million years old. texashillcountry.com/london-hammer-texas-time-travel-simple-scientific-explanation/'Found in London, Texas in 1936 by Max Hahn and his wife while they were out walking, the hammer also became known as the “London artifact” when the rock in which the tool was found trapped in was determined to be over 400 million years old. The question was then posed as to how a tool, obviously made or at least used by man, could be found in rock dated so old when man himself has only been known to exist for roughly 200,000 years? The details boggled conventional history. Believed to be made to work with soft metals (due to its shape and size) the hammer has not rusted since its discovery in 1936. Also, parts of the wooden handle were beginning to form into coal.' Strange as it may seem there is this to consider from the same article. 'Thought to be a tool which is similar to those used in the late 1800s, there was still the wonder around how it could be stuck in such an ancient piece of stone. One belief is that the ancient concretion could have been formed around the tool by soluble minerals.' 'The concept of this process doesn’t make the tool as old as the rock, which therefore debunks any theory that the tool is proof of man’s existence well in advance of current belief.'

'The concept of this process doesn’t make the tool as old as the rock, which therefore debunks any theory that the tool is proof of man’s existence well in advance of current belief.' That's one explanation. Another is that Steve Brill was using that hammer to poke around some Indian burial mounds when he got transported back in time 400 million years. He dropped the hammer while being pursued by Elder Things, before being thrust back to his own time.
