Workers exploring the site of an intended quarry in rural Indiana stumbled upon a mummified body that experts say could be anywhere from 500 to 2,000 years old, the Times of Northwest Indiana reports.

"They could distinguish a head and a torso," says a local sheriff. "It could be a Native American burial ground." Because the remains appear to pre-date 1940, the coroner's office and law enforcement won't be involved in any criminal investigation; as the Times puts it, if a crime did occur, it's likely "hundreds of years too late to do anything about it." The state's archaeology department is taking the lead.

“Because the remains appear to pre-date 1940, the coroner’s office and law enforcement won’t be involved in any criminal investigation”

But there is no statute of limitations on murder.

Must be that new math. Claimed to be 500 - 2000 years old, but only predates 1940. Huuunnnh?!

On his third voyage Columbus visited a bit of what is now the coast of Venezuela, and on his fourth voyage sailed along the coast of Central America from Honduras to Panama.

Thanks dware.

White privilege rears its head again. /s

Some where near the intersection of Sledge Ditch and the Monon Railroad line between US 41 and I-65. South of Lowell and north of Thayer, Indiana

“White privilege” is just another indicator of Caucaphobia
or an unreasoned fear of Caucasians.
