  The

   indicate 
  a 
  temperate 
  clime, 
  unsuited 
  to 
  the 
  reindeer. 
  This 
  piece 
  of 
  

   antler, 
  however, 
  is 
  interesting 
  as 
  being 
  a 
  slender 
  bit 
  of 
  evidence 
  for 
  a 
  

   migration 
  of

  from 
  the 
  North. 
  The

  however, 
  indicates 
  

   a 
  colder 
  climate 
  than 
  that 
  of 
  modern 
  Berkshire.
