What about butter keeps it from spoiling, at least in this instance?
no air.
no oxygen.
makes a person wonder how it was so quickly covered up, and who was churning butter when everything changed in a moment.
The Romans were in England by then.
There was no Roman invasion of Ireland but trading was taking place and some Irish were sold into slavery to the Romans in Britain.
