Birmingham Post – News – Evidence of Stone Age man found in Digbeth – Hey, that’s no way to talk about John Tighe. Oh, hang on, that’s not what Neil Elkes is talking about:
Archaeologists have uncovered remarkable evidence that stone age man lived in the centre of Birmingham more than 10,000 years ago. The settlers used basic flint knives to hunt and cut meat and used fire to clear areas of woodland for grazing and growing food.
They then threw their flint knives away outside Curzon Street Station in Eastside. Does this mean we’ll have a Time Team in Digbeth? Fingers crossed.
