Druids reburial appeal rebuffed
Druids have lost a bid to have an ancient skeleton which was unearthed in Wiltshire reburied at one of the county's most famous stone age sites.
The Council of British Druid Orders told an official consultation that the body of a neolithic child, found in 1929, should be reinterred at Avebury.
The druids contend that the remains which are on display in the village need to be treated with more respect.
But English Heritage, which owns the site, says the bones should be on show.
