Dydh Da (Hello)!
Welcome to the Fourth episode in my overview series on the History of Kernow (Cornwall).
In this episode, we'll be looking at a people who swept across Europe and into Kernow during the Late Neolithic and Early Bronze Age, bringing with them their famous bell-shaped beakers, as well as metalworking, new types of monuments, and even the beginning of modern-day Cornish genetic heritage.
Dha Weles (see you), and thanks for watching!
