"They call him Cheddar Man. He lived more than 10,000 years ago, had brown hair, blue eyes and dark to black skin. To the surprise of many, he is believed to have been the first modern Briton. A new project from London's Natural History Museum and University College London has revealed groundbreaking DNA results that give a much clearer image of early British inhabitants. Cheddar Man's skeleton was discovered in 1903 in Gough's Cave, located in Cheddar Gorge in Somerset, England. It is thought that the cool temperature in the cave helped to preserve the skeleton's valuable DNA. If the body was deposited in a good environment, where there was a cool and constant temperature, then the petrous bone is a good place to find useful ancient DNA, said the Natural History Museum's Selina Brace, who specializes in the study of ancient DNA. Scientists obtained DNA from Cheddar Man by drilling a 2-millimeter hole in his skull and extracting bone powder. Initially, it was assumed that the man, who died in his 20s, had pale skin, but new analysis and facial reconstruction have revealed quite the opposite. It is now believed that Cheddar Mans ancestors arrived in Britain via the Middle East after leaving Africa." ETA: They obviously saw the humor in it... |

Referring to him that he could be the "first modern Briton" is rather disingenuous as they can never prove he was born there.
Edit: I read something not long ago that said around that timeframe, the English channel was a tidal area. |

From reading that article I’m surprised they didn’t say he believed in LGBT rights, ate a gluten-free diet and was Islamic (1000’s of years before Islam existed).

Is this like global warming, or climate change, or whatever and they modify the "science" behind it to give them the outcome they want? Because all this shit happened tens of thousands of years ago, or more, and yet they claim to "know" what the avg temperature was 10,000 years ago.

Does the DNA information actually tell the doners skin and eye color?
|
|

I thought it was going be along these lines;
Sicilians Come From Blacks (True Romance) |
|
So where did the white man come from it everyone they found since the dawn of man is black?
|
|
|
So the bleached African ruled the waves, conquered the world and built an empire upon which the sun never sat?
|
|
And...and...he was trans, for sure. And a refugee. Definitely escaping white oppression somewhere.

I don't think these "scientists" know as much as they think they know...

Probably pulled him out of a peat bog. Probably also a slave brought from wherever. Maybe even cross bread with a celt. Globalist agenda being pushed.
