It has recently been discovered that the people who built Stonehenge died out some 4,000 years ago and there is evidence of them having the plague. When three skeletons from that period were examined, two from Somerset and one from Cumbria, it was discovered that there was Yersinia pestis, the bacterium that causes plague, was in their dental pulp. 4,000 years ago is when the Neolithic ended and the Bronze Age began. There has for sometime been discussions as to whether or not the change to the Bronze Age was due to new ideas being passed on or an invasion of people with new technology, the making of items in bronze for example. It now looks like it was a migration of people from the continent moving into what had become empty lands in Britain. There was also evidence of the plague in England 1,500 years ago. Did anyone see when Covid started a young man who wandered around his village dressed as a plague doctor. Some people were upset by this and someone called the police but the police saw the funny side and he went home to get changed out of his costume.
