Human Skull Found in Amble
Noticed front page of the Northumberland Gazette (15/4/10) that a skull has been found in Amble and "Tests Show Skull is Human" (although I think human skulls are pretty distinctive )
Anyway, found in a 'bay' between Links Avenue and Links Road, whatever a 'bay' is ? parking bay??? So it's off to Edinburgh University for carbon dating. Reminds me of 1994/5 when I discovered some 'human remains' myself. On the eroding sand dunes opposite the caravan site, no ancient cist or anything, just a few bones; to be precise one femur, two fibulas and two tibias. (plus smaller bones, but no skull) Obviously human to me, I went and sought the Police and returned to the scene with two officers. This material, which was apparently of some age was duly collected and sent somewhere for analysis. I did ask the Police - please, please, keep me informed of the results, but alas I never did receive any more information, so I have no idea of a date. I guess the academics have no interest in keeping the plebs informed? bones I found on Amble dunes: |
