6,000-Year-Old Skeletons Found Locked in Embrace Near Greek Cave
ROME â They died young and, by the looks of it, in love.
Two skeletons of the age of 6,000 found locked in an embrace near the city of Shakespeare set the star-crossed tale âRomeo and Julietâ have sparked theories the remains of a far more ancient love story have been found.
Archaeologists unearthed the skeletons dating back to the late Neolithic period outside Mantua, 25 miles south of Verona, the city of Shakespeareâs story of doomed love.
Buried between 5,000 and 6,000 years ago, the prehistoric pair are believed to have been a man and a woman and are thought to have died young, because their teeth were found intact, said Elena Menotti, the archaeologist who led the dig.
Hey, I dated my gal for 4 years OFF and ON and have been married for 41 years so I can DIG it:-)
“Because their teeth were found intact”
I guess you knocked Grandpa’s teeth out in those days.
“Grandpa....you think it’s funny for me to pull your finger so you can blast one? Here’s a nice punch to thank you.”
I hope they’re of the opposite sex, otherwise we’ll never hear the end of it.

Times change. People don’t.
The poet Vergil was born in a village near Mantua.
Archeology is racist!😂
Or in the case of my comment, homophobic.

Seems there were a lot of them around the same time period. I wonder what happened.
That point wasn’t lost on me but right now everything is racist......
Ya’ know my white privilege and all.....
Cue death-metal adult movie music.
