Thanks. We found a family of skeletons once. The baby had a puncture wound in the head, which means it was probably killed by the father. The mother had no apparent fractures. It was in a cave near Qumran, and we surmised that they were probably starving, and the father (or mother) killed the others. The dating indicated an age of around 2000 years ago.

Perhaps they were refugees during one of the uprisings during the 1st c AD.
