Experts noted that in the trench discovered, many skeletons without skulls belonged to teenagers.

An international research team of archaeologists in the small town of Vrable in southern Slovakia has discovered a grave of people who died around 5250-4950 BC. This was reported by the Academy of Sciences of Slovakia.

So at the bottom of the trench, experts found a cluster of human bones belonging to at least 35 people. Almost all are headless. Only a child’s skull was found.

Archaeologists noticed that they had found a burial in the community. However, this year they excavated a trench containing a large accumulation of human bones. The bodies initially lie in various positions – on the back, on the stomach, on the side, and so on.

Now researchers want to know how all these people ended up in a common grave, if they were killed people, victims of epidemics, or they were sacrificed as part of a ritual. Also, experts aim to find out how these people are genetically related, as well as find out when their skulls disappeared.
