Re: Lindow Man 'was a simple murder victim' by Anonymous on Wednesday, 13 January 2010

to the last poster-Stonehenge was never used by druids--it was a ruin when their cult flourished. It's thousands of years old...and btw, there IS some evidence of sacrifice there, including 9 cremations of children round an Aubrey hole, and a man 'guarding' the entrance who was shot in the back with arrows.
but back to lindow--this body is too similar to the others found in Europe and more recently in Ireland to just be coincidental. he wore an armband matching well one found on one of the Irish bodies. All of these men had manicured nails and seem to be high status-what's the random chance of that? Even if they were prisoners,which is a possibility, the nature of their death has ritual overtones.

Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
