Business Insider USThe skeletons were found with no head at the site of Vráble-Ve`lke Lehemby in Slovakia in 2022.A 7,000-year-old grave filled with headless skeletons was discovered in Slovakia. The heads may have been severed in a brutal act of war or by priests to honour the dead.Archaeologists have discovered a 7,000-year-old mass grave in Slovakia containing 38 skeletons, with all but one decapitated.
Early studies suggest the heads were removed purposefully after death, an author of the study told Insider. Only one skeleton belonging to a child under the age of 6 had its skull intact. Early observation of the remains suggests the decapitations were likely intentional, she said in an interview with Insider. On the bodies preserved well enough to still have observable neck bones, the first vertebra, directly under the skull, was intact, she said."When you have a violent decapitation, like in the medieval ages with a sword or with an axe, you would see cut marks and also crushed vertebra in the regions of the neck," she said.
Whether the head was removed before or after death is unclear, project leader Martin Furholt, a professor of prehistory and social archeology at Kiel University, told Insider in an email.
