Super exciting stuff. To crown it all a 'Durotrigian Eve' ! . We are all going to have to think about our understanding of IA society. It would be really helpful if Welsh bones could stop dissolving in our acidic souls.
⚠️Iron Age RESEARCH klaxon alert⚠️. The new OPEN ACCESS article from the joint @tcddublin @bournemouthuni and @BristolUni work on DNA of the Durotriges:. *Continental influx and pervasive matrilocality in Iron Age Britain*. Is out @Nature TODAY - enjoy !.

The 'path of querns' was amongst my favourite finds from Porth y Rhaw. Like many archaeologists it's the quiet personal finds which give a glimpse into people's lives rather than the glittering objects that I find most special.
