Archaeologists are to resume digging at the Ness of Brodgar on Orkney after 3D radar technology led to an “extraordinary discovery”.

The dig team at the Ness, one of the most important Neolithic sites in the British Isles, are not revealing what they believe the find to be until more work is done.

But they say it is like nothing else ever found at the site – and may not even be Neolithic.

    Buried below layers of neolithic flint chips, bone scrapings and preserved crushed seed husks, an original sony Playstation, in near new condition, with two controllers and a memory card containing save files for Silent Hill I, Metal Gear Solid, and Gran Turismo. But the GT garage is just a tricked out Toyota Yaris and a stock MX-5, so the owners must have been very primitive people indeed.
