Sinister practises amongst the Celtic tribes of Britain

An astonishing discovery here in my local county of Dorset, by archaeologists from the university in the town where I currently live – Bournemouth – may completely revolutionise the understanding of Celtic Britain and its tribal groups.
The sinister finds at Winterborne Kingston, situated around ten miles north-west of Poole, include the rearranging of animal bones to form mythical hybrid beasts.
This bizarre activity leaves one wondering what on earth was going on in the minds of our ancestors, but it does suggest trading links with ancient Greece. The question now is – did Greek mythology influence the Celtic tribes of Europe, or did the Greeks get their myths a long time ago from the British tribes, so far back into history there is no evidence of it remaining? Or did these mythologies arise independently and suggest something more about the human psyche?
Anyone about to embark on a PhD? 🙂
