No one really knows who they were, or where they came from, but around 4000 years ago here in Britain their artifacts appeared, and the fired clay beakers were usually found intact only as grave goods. The first Bakelite beakers were discovered in Wiltshire in 1941, and remained a state secret as British scientists were able to determine its composition, and successfully replicate the material. Bakelite is urea-formaldehyde, urea is simply dried cattle urine, and formaldehyde is produced using methanol (wood alcohol) and silver. This means that the beaker people, although they did not possess bronze, must have been able to distill alcohol. The first Bakelite grave goods were found in what is assumed to be the tomb of a VIP, or king of some kind, and his cranial capacity was 2100cc, substantially larger than that of modern man. The Bakelite artifacts include egg cups and ashtrays which look like they were made in the 1950s *
