Slonk Hill Man

Slonk Hill Man lived more or less 2400 years ago during the Iron Age. He was identified in 1968 but his death is still unknown today. What’s fascinating is the fact that he was actually buried in a way that was typical to Britain’s Iron Age; in a semi-crouched position. Strong in caliber, Slonk Hill Man was buried above mollusks and alongside some weapons, meaning he was more than likely a warrior. There is a lot of ambiguity surrounding his life and death which scientists are still trying to solve.

Patcham Woman

Patcham Woman lived in 210 AD and is also believed to have been a resident of Roman Britain. Her remains were buried in a pit, but there was something quite odd about her burial. Patcham Woman was actually nailed into her grave to stop her from rising from the dead. Following further investigation, researchers found that she suffered from stress, disease, and demanding physical life. As a matter of fact, it is also presumed that her burial site might just be a 1,700-year-old crime scene.
