Scientists find 2,000-year-old brain in Britain

British archaeologists have unearthed an ancient skull carrying a startling surprise - an unusually well-preserved brain.
Scientists said Friday that the mass of gray matter was more than 2,000 years old - the oldest ever discovered in Britain. One expert unconnected with the find called it "a real freak of preservation."

The skull was severed from its owner sometime before the Roman invasion of Britain and found in a muddy pit during a dig at the University of York in northern England this fall, according to Richard Hall, a director of York Archaeological Trust.

Id say that was frightening in the very least finding a brain in an old skull, but maybe they will find something different about this brain, the way its structured and the way it works, I doubt it though.
If they found a few differences that would be one more blow to creationism and more ammo for evolution, although in my view they don't have to be exclusive.
