Cold case
Archaeologists have solved an ancient cold case mystery by scanning the head of an Iron Age "murder victim".
The preserved head of the second century Briton - known as The Worsley Man due to his location near Salford - was found in a peat bog in 1958.
The scan shows he as bludgeoned over the head, garrotted and then beheaded - leading archaeologists to suspect he was sacrificed.
