🏺Have had a pleasant few days pratting around Skipton including jogging up to what felt like the top of the world to inspect this handsome Early Bronze Age ring cairn (Ringstones or Hare Hill Cairn). A collared urn containing a cremation was recovered from the centre and is in the Craven Museum.

🏺Stellar work by @andyjmwalton.bsky.social and colleagues. Previous craniometric analysis of the Beachy Head Woman, a Roman burial from near Eastbourne Sussex, had suggested she had ancestry from Africa. Ancient DNA analysis finds no evidence for this... www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
