TSC ,Not unlike digital technlogy it's moving fast . Just as RC dating transformed out understanding this stuff will do the same . We already are capable of talking in generations from DNA e.g. it wasn't the "ancestors "deposited in WKLB , it was the parents or if not , people a generation older than builders .Next step is discovering where they and their ancestors came from and how they were related .


That's the bit I'm really keen on knowning, how they were related particularly in family terms. If the WKLB was only used for a very short space of time after its initial build, rather than the 1000 years or so that it was around before being sealed up, then it 'suggests' just a family use, but is that realistic? It seems odd to me that a 'family only' tomb should be left open for so long after the last burial.
