    Stonehenge: DNA reveals origin of builders

    Stonehenge: DNA reveals origin of builders

    They appear to be from Anatolia- modern day Turkey (the Asian part). I am not surprised by this discovery.

    The ancestors of the people who built Stonehenge travelled west across the Mediterranean before reaching Britain, a study has shown.

    Researchers compared DNA extracted from Neolithic human remains found across Britain with that of people alive at the same time in Europe.


    The Neolithic inhabitants were descended from populations originating in Anatolia (modern Turkey) that moved to Iberia before heading north.


    They reached Britain in about 4,000BC.


    Details have been published in the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution.
    The migration to Britain was just one part of a general, massive expansion of people out of Anatolia in 6,000BC that introduced farming to Europe.


    Before that, Europe was populated by small, travelling groups which hunted animals and gathered wild plants and shellfish.


    One group of early farmers followed the river Danube up into Central Europe, but another group travelled west across the Mediterranean.

    No, Stonehenge was built by stone masons from Brooklyn. Everyone knows that.

    Wait a minute. If the Brits are actually Turks then who are the Turks?
    Liberals are a clear and present danger to our nation

    There were no Turks at the time. In fact, there were no Turks in modern day Turkey until the 11th Century.
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.
