This is based on isotopic analysis of the teeth of the ppl interred there in the 1st millennium BC, from Late Bronze Age to Middle Iron Age.
I remain fascinated by this research on Punic connections to Britain. Wonder what LA Waddell would think of this verification of his work?

It's neat because it's a much broader confirmation than the traditionally accepted "Phoenicians traded for tin in Cornwall" connection.
Indeed! Much harder to ignore, I think :)
