@archeohistories I know he's from Brighton but why do I feel like he's from Manchester?

Reconstruction of a man aged 25–30 years who lived about 4,000 years ago. His remains were found in 1921 during road works in Brighton..... This facial reconstruction depicts a man from Britain’s Bronze Age, approximately 4,000 years ago, whose remains were unearthed in 1921 in Brighton, East Sussex. Based on forensic analysis of his skull, scientists estimate that he was between 25 and 30 years old at the time of death. His skeleton, found in a crouched burial position typical of the era, offered valuable clues about life and society in prehistoric southern England. Advanced facial reconstruction techniques, using 3D scanning and forensic modeling, allowed researchers to recreate his appearance with striking realism. His light skin tone and blue-gray eyes reflect genetic traits emerging in northern Europe during this period, as populations from the Eurasian Steppe, often associated with the Beaker culture (a prehistoric European culture (2800–1800 BC) named for its distinctive bell-shaped pottery, associated with the spread of metalworking, new burial rites, and the genetic transformation of early Bronze Age Britain), migrated into Britain and mixed with Neolithic farming communities. The hat and clothing in the reconstruction are modeled on archaeological finds from similar burials, suggesting he was part of a settled community with skilled craftsmanship and early metalworking abilities. Brighton Man lived during a transformative period when Britain was shifting from the late Neolithic to the early Bronze Age, marked by the introduction of copper and bronze tools, new burial practices, and long-distance trade networks. His discovery provides a glimpse into a population that would lay the genetic and cultural foundations for later British societies. Isotope analysis of the man’s teeth indicates he likely grew up in southern Britain, suggesting that while the Beaker cultural influence spread widely, local populations played a major role in shaping Bronze Age Britain. #archaeohistories

@novaramedia please cover the planning inquiry in Peckham. It's about the housing crisis, gentrification, planning reform, developer greed over local need, and you'll find some interesting interviewees in the SHAPE campaign. Complexify nimby/yimby binary. southwarknews.co.uk/area/peckham/p…

@WokeratiMarty That is the voice of Brian Stowell, aka Brexit Brian. Former member of the NF and other far right organisations back in the day. He's the guy that did a Nazi salute outside the Herne Hill Tavern. Same old travelling far right activists.

A group of "patriots" chanted "Jeremy Corbyn's a wanker" outside a Your Party meeting in Portsmouth: Here, the police break it to them that all they've actually done is frighten a group of disabled kids having a dance class. Couldn't make it up really. 🤡

@novaramedia Peckham looks to be the first to suffer from centralisation of planning. Berkley will pile up luxury rentals and overseas speculation properties. Minimal affordable homes. No increase to local infrastructure. Locals hate it but we're bypassed. southwarknews.co.uk/area/peckham/p…

@fkareem01 I've been a customer for years and it's much more reliable than Virgin, which I had before. First time there's been a major outage for me.

Can we please try to distinguish what is factual from what is merely consensus?
