Cheddar Man Share DNA with History Teacher @janewatkins 03/06/22 Author: The Archaeologist. In: The Archaeologist.

Separated by 10,000 years but linked by DNA! A 9,000 year old skeleton's DNA was tested and it was concluded that a living relative was teaching history about a half mile away, tracing back nearly 300 generations! #cheddarman #mesolithic #archaeology

The Mysteries of British History @rasmun 22/04/22

British historians like to portray the Anglo-Saxons as primitives who lived in wooden huts. According to the myth these primitives were extremely lucky because the Normans came and within 100-200 years had built a church or cathedral in every town and village. #norman #saxon #uk
