American History X


"bite the curb" a classic line from the movie American History X. The adult skeleton appears to have suffered the same fate as the character in American History X, as inferred by the head wound. The rib cage of the skeleton has also been caved in, so maybe the culprit missed the first time, or was just finishing him off.

The sad part about this is, the last time anyone was in the house that we are uncovering, people were dying.

The Skeletons



This is two skeletons of anctient times. Our team found them in square C4. It appears as if when they died they were possibiliy hiding from someone, such as a roman guard. The larger of the two skeletons has a massive blow to his ribcage, implying that he/she got into a bit of action before he/she died. The child skeleton is holding the larger skeleton's hand.
