Quick update on this if anyone interested: chased it up, DNA testing unfortunately never completed due to the person doing it moving away...
@caitlinrgreen Oh drat. My students just asked about evidence of Africans in England in early medieval period--I was hoping for good news...
@commish24 is still some poss evidence, incl at least 3 individuals id'd via skeletal analysis, but DNA would have made more secure :-/
@commish24 Also this, of course, relating to 9thC Ireland: https://twitter.com/caitlinrgreen/status/550306385507147777 … :)
@caitlinrgreen This is shaping up like a MRJames mystery! No news on the DNA or is that for NYE?
@stevegreen39 Lol! Well, it's def the right area of the country. Sadly, I've not yet found the results--no further mention of them, afaik!
