    Humans returned to Britain 500 years earlier than scientists thought after the last ice age

    Humans returned to Britain around 15,200 years ago, earlier than previously thought, and migrated along with herds of reindeer and horses across a warming landscape. The last ice sheet began retreating, allowing people to move into the British Isles. This new evidence suggests a revised timeline for human presence in the region.
