"The inhabitants appeared to be cultivating a little enclosure around the house with grain. This was probably part of their diet alongside meat and fish.
"They would have had mainly sheep but it's possible they had cows or goats. They would have had the best diet possible in that type of environment, with plenty of roughage and fibre."
Read it here.
That's basically it! Now you tell me, what is there about this that is particularly interesting, important, or newsworthy? Nothing, that' what! Note that there is no specific information in this at all. Note the weasel words, "appeared to be," "probably," "would have had."They have no hard evidence and nothing to really say about what they do have which is a few pieces of ancient sh*t. From the story it appears that the stuff hasn't even been analyzed yet. But they went ahead and contacted the media anyway.
Archaeologists [remember, they claim to be "scientists" -- they do, really]!
