Heads and pikes? How modern. Better still – a blow to the head, strangulation, throats cut and a trip to the local bog so the incompetent officers can become archaeology themselves.

I recall that when Ã?tzi the Iceman was discovered his remains were brutalized by clueless cops. But at least these remarkable finds were eventually recognized. In much of the world they would be just so much loot.

Textiles, in a Bronze Age cist in northern Scotland!? Ye Gods… Finds like that make hen’s teeth and horse feathers look relatively commonplace.

Isn’t it wonderful to observe the intelligence of a scottish police officer in action, ready to take on any suspected crime no matter how ancient.

One should send them to Stonehenge, after all a burial was there uncovered not too long ago.
Imagine what those two officers, some cranes and a few back hoes could achieve.

There would be no further investigation necessary to uncover perceived mysteries of Stonehenge.

A hearty: “well done lads” to those officers.

Heads. Pikes.

Do the top Scottish detectives work out of England Yard?

Even if they don’t, they should be applauded for not allowing possible foul play to go unprobed after 40 centuries!
