1,000 Year Old Skeleton Discovered in Roots of Tree
A 1,000-year-old skeleton was discovered dangling from the roots of a beech tree in the Irish town of Collooney, after a strong storm ripped the 200-year-old tree from the ground earlier this year. The remains belonged to a young man, and markings on the skeleton suggest that he died a violent death inflicted by a sharp blade. But it's not year clear whether this was a battle wound or something more sinister. a bit more here: http://www.sciencealert.com/a-mediev...ree-in-ireland long ago a tree blew over on my grandparents' property and they found a stone axe head(or spear head)...kind of interesting thinking what ancient piece of history lays buried just below your feet at any given moment  · |

I think of that especially when I am "off-roading".

Re: 1,000 Year Old Skeleton Discovered in Roots of Tree
 fantastic!Interesting! We never know. We have had some fascinating (as well as intriguing) finds down here in the bayou. Unfortunately for me, I live on what was probably swampland. I do have a river flowing through the very back end of my property, The only thing we find are arrowheads and cypress Knees. |
