“It could be humanity’s oldest story of doomed love. Archaeologists have unearthed two skeletons from the Neolithic period locked in an eternal embrace and buried outside Mantua, Italy, just 25 miles south of Verona, the city where Shakespeare set the star-crossed tale of Romeo and Juliet.
After being found at the site where a factory is planned, people worldwide have speculated on the circumstances surrounding the couple’s deaths. They are thought to have died young because they both had all their teeth intact. But beyond that, the skeletons are a mystery. Archaeologists announced Monday that they will move the entire block of earth the skeletons are resting in for further study and eventual display in a museum.”
wow.

Is that your femur bone, or are you just happy to see me? I sense a new movie idea: “The Notebook: B.C.”
Looks more like the results of a fight to the death if you ask me. I’m not bitter, I swear.
Interesting, I didn’t know any of this. News to me!
are they only now unearthing them? this was discovered close to two years ago…
