Archeological excavations in Bolaghi Gorge historical site led to discovery of the skeleton of a young girl belonging to 7000 years ago, who apparently died in her sleep due to an unknown reason... According to Seyedein, eight stone beads have also been discovered with the skeleton of the girl. These stone beads were close to her wrist and neck... According to Seyedein, the skeleton of this girl is completely intact, and even after the passing of 7000 years, her teeth have remained unharmed. Considering the broken clays around the grave of the girl, archeologists believe that she should have lived during the Bacon era. Although the skeleton has been discovered near the clay oven, archeologists believe that there is no relation between them. Burying the corpse in the floor of residential houses was one of the most common burial methods during the pre-historic time. Archeologists are now trying to figure out if it were also true about this 7000 year-old girl. Archeological excavations in Bolaghi Gorge started when experts learned of the hazards the newly constructed Sivand Dam poses to this historical site... The 18-kilometer Bolaghi Gorge is located 9 kilometers from the world heritage site of Pasargadae and is considered part of its landscape. The Gorge is known to be the location of the ancient King Road built by the order of Darius the Great, the Achaemenid King.

No, but I'll give it a shot. Had a BELT (Egg) about a week ago in a breakfast joint.
I cheat and use bacon fat and finely chopped bacon in my gumbo too.
Depends -- in northern North America, the Bacon Era is really the Ham era.
That's not cheating! It's genius!!!
You might have hit of something there. Maybe Hillary has been dead for 7000 years.
Addressing the picture of a mummified body of a young Incan girl, this was President Clintons comment.
"One of the memorable moments of this kind was his comment on "Juanita" (pictured above), a newly discovered Incan mummy exhibited at the National Geographic museum in 1996. "You know, if I were a single man, I might ask that mummy out. That's a good-looking mummy," Clinton famously remarked.
By the time Hendrix was my age, he'd been dead twenty years.
Iranian-German joint archeology team has continued its excavations in Bolaghi Gorge historical site since winter 2006 under the supervision of Mojgan Seyedein from Iran and Barbara Helwing from Germany. Due to the discovery of a new area near Sivand Dam which is believed to have been a settlement area belonging to the fifth millennium BC, they will continue their excavations until the end of May. The team has discovered 5 clay ovens belonging to the fifth millennium BC in area number 73 so far.
These archaologists are doing important work - may they be blessed with success, professional support and respect.
