The only clues we had early on was the body was about 6 foot, and had no dental work. Any thoughts on these facts?

The 6 ft. aspect of it didn't shout out to me, but the lack of dental work suggested a body from long, long ago.

Certainly suggested strongly it wasn’t Jock and the lack of dental work helped us know it wasn’t a recent body.

A very old skeleton.

That made me think it was an old burial - probably related to the viking raids in the area that are being described by the Monk

I was thinking that it was a tall Viking as didn't have dental work at that time.

Either an old skeleton or someone that had a major fear of dentist.
