I think we might have a better understanding if we knew how closely the people who lived here during the monument building periods were related/descended.


That's when it gets interesting as we are just starting out on that understanding it's maybe a bit early but it certainly looks an incursion into Europe of DNA haplogroups that displaced the earlier Neolithic punters ,the archaeology supports with the same type of burials and pottery etc the limited EBA DNA (that's two TLA 's ) is the same here for the continental experience but the problem is getting British Neolithic DNA to compare it with , that will be the clincher .
