Hagar Qim
Hagar Qim is located on the island of Malta. It is a religious site that dates back to 3600-3200 BC and has been called a “unique architectural masterpiece.” The common belief is that the site was used for ritual sacrifices since animal bones have been found there and not human bones. Since it was built mainly out of limestone, weather conditions caused damage and only in 2009 was a protective tent placed over the holy site.

Headless Vikings
In 2009 when diggers in Weymouth, England found a mass grave, they were especially surprised to find that there were an uneven amount of skeletons and heads in the ground. Forensic analysts stated that the 51 heads and 54 skeletons were all males and no older than 25 years old at the time of their death. Further inspection revealed that the skeletons belonged to Scandinavian Vikings from around 970 to 1025 AD. The vikings were probably captured during an attempted invasion.
