A Bit Of Archaeology For Valentine's Day!

And Now From The BBC:

"Archaeologists in Italy have unearthed two skeletons thought to be 5,000 to 6,000 years old, locked in an embrace. The pair from the Neolithic period were discovered outside Mantua, about 40km (25 miles) south of Verona. The pair, almost certainly a man and a woman, are thought to have died young as their teeth were mostly intact, said chief archaeologist Elena Menotti.

"It's an extraordinary case," said Ms Menotti. "There has not been a double burial found in the Neolithic period, much less two people hugging - and they really are hugging," she told Reuters news agency. Flint tools, including arrowheads and a knife, were also found alongside the couple. Scientists will now study the skeletons and artefacts to work out how and when the two people died, Ms Menotti said."
