Their settlements could well be under the sea now, or just confused with Amerindian sites, or just have been so few in number that they haven't been discovered.

    As to their 'whiteness', well they certainly weren't indo-European, but that wouldn't mean they weren't white. There are plenty of people in Europe who aren't indo-European, but are white, the Basques for example, and as I understand the Finns and Lapps and other Urgic people are too, plus I'd imagine there's plenty of pre-Indo-European descent in Britain too (apparently, most British and Irish people are descended from a few original stone age settlers apart from the odd influx of continental genetic stock).
    allright, that makes me want to rethink another statement.

    I never went to that site with the intention to look for such theories. i was debating a certain point when they brought this theory up to counter my argument. i must say it came unexpected and i did not have something to put against it. therefor i now want to know how realistic this theory is.
