Birmingham City Uni campus occupied in the Mesolithic

The earliest evidence of human occupation yet to be found in Birmingham has been found at a dig on the site of the new Birmingham City Uni campus. The finds include flint tools, together with pollen and charcoal, which have been carbon dated to 10,400 BC during the Mesolithic – about 7000 years earlier than any previous finds in the city.
