Hmmm very interesting but typically a load of BOLLOCKS oppps did I say that maybe it was a slip of the tongue.
However, it is thought the copper would have come from the Iberian peninsular, Alpine Europe, especially modern day Switzerland, and possibly other locations in France, such as the Massif Central, and even as far as Austria.
It is first time tin ingots from this period have ever been found in Britain, a discovery which may support theories that the metal was being mined in the south west at this time.
If the tin was not produced in Britain, it is likely it would have also come from the Iberian peninsular or from eastern Germany.
Crikey, how dumb can these nit wits be? The old British historical documents and records tell how the Britains were a sea going nation and had a fleet of many ships.
Joesph of Arimathea had a huge fleet of ships exporting Tin and other metals to Rome and other countries. Their stupidity is endless and beyond belief that they can come up with such notions when they have not even dated anything by Radio Carbon 14 to get precise dates.
The cargo recovered includes 259 copper ingots and 27 tin ingots. Also found was a bronze leaf sword, two stone artefact's that could have been sling shots, and three gold wrist torcs ? or bracelets.
So, they found Torcs, interesting just take a look in the British Museum to see how many Torcs they have on display there. Are these so called academics real or do the come from another planet?
"It is very rare to get a snapshot of this level of activity. It is very possible there were also animals and people going across the Channel too.
"We hardly ever get to see evidence of this cross Channel trade in action. It is a huge amount of cargo."
Britain was a world leader in metal production with its tin mines in Cornwall and Wales and gold and iron in Wales too. Welsh Gold is used by the English Monarch and its mines are still in production even as I write.
This also goes to show how STUPID and IGNORANT English Archaeologists and historians really are when it comes round to British History. Next we will hear them declare that the word Britannia which is on the back of many Roman Coins really Means England thinking were gunna fall for that load of Hogwash too.
The credibility of the English Academic is going down the pan with a big flush and maybe some might be embarrassed at what their so called colleagues are doing but do they care? evidently not because they are going down with them too. And the whole worlds watching in disgust as to how low these parasite paid by the Government will sink as long as they get paid.
