Archaeologists discovered, well-preserved brain and skin remnants of two individuals dating to the Bronze Age during excavations at Tavşanlı Höyük (Tavşanlı Mound) in western Türkiye’s Kütahya province...
The excavations of the mound, which spans an area of 45 hectares, are carried out by the Archeology Department of Bilecik Şeyh Edebali University. A team of 25 local and foreign experts accompanies the research carried out under the chairmanship of Professor Erkan Fidan.
According to experts, the discovery was noteworthy because it was the first time that skin remains had been found during archaeological excavations in Türkiye, whereas brain remains had only been found four or five times.
The brain and skin remnants of a young (15-18) and middle-aged man (40-45) were preserved through carbonization, according to Anadolu Agency (AA), adding that experts believe it belonged to two people who were unable to flee their homes after it was set on fire during an attack 3,700 years ago...
Professor Erkan Fidan told the conference that the mound is the oldest settlement in the area and that experts believe it was the capital of the region back in the Bronze Age... [until] there was a large-scale attack on the city... and the whole city was burnt to the ground.
Meanwhile, Professor Yılmaz Selim Erdal from Hacettepe University’s Anthropology Department noted that both skeletons were exposed to high degrees of heat, which allowed the brain to be preserved inside the skull. They also noted that they found skin remnants in one of the skeletons, between the chest and abdomen, also carbonized by heat...
Experts stated that they will now investigate why the attack was carried out and who carried it out.

“Experts stated that they will now investigate why the attack was carried out and who carried it out.”
The white Supremacist hordes hated the turkey-ites for their freedoms, education and cat worship, and so called up their god of hell-fire to suddenly increase entropy thus vanquishing the heathens while creating charcoal to trap carbon emissions.
It's not much of a consolation, but they probably succumbed to smoke inhalation, before they got cooked.
Depending on the size of the site, it wouldn't be surprising if there are more.
It’s not unlikely that part of the investigation will come up dry.
“Experts stated that they will now investigate why the attack was carried out and who carried it out.”
How do they know it wasn’t a wildfire cause by Bronze Age global warming?
“called up their god of hell-fire to suddenly increase entropy”
Wouldn’t that make it colder?
But what does that have to do with brain fragments? ;^)
Just some imagery of what life is going to be like again when eco nazis successfully eliminate our ability to generate power.
Brain fragments at the white house...
