Northumberland Bronze Age skeleton: Whose bones are these?
27 January 2018
Forensic scientists have been analysing Bronze Age bones found in a field - but how do they work out who the person was?
In September 2017, a farmer near Rock, Northumberland, preparing his field for drainage discovered a burial cist - or stone coffin - containing a skeleton and a jug.
Sanita Nezirovic, a lecturer in forensic science at the University of Derby, was tasked with finding out whose bones they were.
