Not just to the era, to WAY BACK in that era. Islam didn't show up until the 7th century AD. This is 40th century BC stuff.

I think the translator is off and should be fed more coffee or something.

They were buried per an ancient occult faith, as best as I can interpret, people at this time worshiped demons.

It was a prophecy that someday a great leader would arise whose name would be an anagram for “A Sharp Nail.”

“The bodies were buried with one nail beside their knees, one nail beside their left shoulders, and bunch of nails over and under their heads and feet”
