Money yes as Nigel hinted at but surely not that much! Coring is a little more involved than taking a soil sample. There had to be interest from the landowner and a will to know the answer, and a study (so part of a specific question). In this case someone had to offer to carry out the work and someone else had to write a cheque for over £20,000. Those Egyptian guys taking those core samples on the TV Monday night would have done that for a bag of Mealy Mealy and a lift back into town!! :D Reply | with quote | Posted by Sanctuary 2nd June 2011ce 14:40 In reply to: Re: Prehistoric origins confirmed!
