Well, before anyone jumps down my throat again (should be getting used to that by now)..British folk culture is deep - we know how deep thanks to the incredible story of the Cheddar Gorge Man.



I hestiated in replying as any negative response might be seen as throat jumping , it isn't , merely cautionary .
The Cheddar man story is not a continuation of folk lore and the Sykes aspect should maybe be taken with a pinch of salt . A bit like the fag smoking coke snorting mummy the potential level of contamination in these "studies " would never be seen today and must be seen as a possibility ,a retest if possible would be good .Another problem is that the haplotype was mt U5 which is incredibly common in Europe (11%) and Mr Targett may just as well be related to a viking or BA immigrant .
