Just read that, interesting stuff. Hard to imagine the Neolithic peeps of Western Ireland looking like they're from Sardinia. Mind you, some of those Sardinian tombs do look a lot like those later Western Irish ones. I wonder if Cope was aware of this when he embarked on his Sardinian set '131' book and Neon Sardinia projects. My great great grandad was from Western Ireland before settling in West Wales, then on to the Midlands. I got (well had, it's mostly grey now) dark brown hair and brown eyes and even a small amount of sun causes me to tan very quickly...makes me wonder if there's a connection, even after all this time, though probably just wishful thinking :)
