Breathtaking Pictures Of The Valdaro Lovers, A Pair Of Skeletons That Had Been Locked For 6,000 Years

The Valdaro Lovers are two skeletons who have been locked in an eternal embrace for 6,000 years. The embracing skeletons were found in 2007, at a Neolithic tomb next to the village of Valdaro in Mantua, Italy.

According to scientists, the partners were probably no older than 20 years old when they died and were around 5’2″ (157 cm) in height. An osteological examination showed that there was no evidence of violent death. As many historians believe, the couple died that way because of the flints tools that were discovered with them. The male skeleton was found having a flint arrowhead beside his neck, while the female had a long stone blade along her thigh as well as two flint knives under her pelvis.

A possible explanation is that the flint tools were buried as grave goods together with the lovers. It's fascinating that their bodies were positioned that way after they died. They were discovered in a necropolis, so they didn't die that way by accident, rather, it is claimed that they were positioned that way.

It's even more impressive that, during the Neolithic period, double burials were really uncommon which makes their position unique. The embracing skeletons are the only situation of a double burial in Northern Italy. When they were discovered, the media published pictures of them, causing great excitement across the globe.

Since the skeletons were discovered just ten years ago, it is extremely challenging to define anything about them so quickly. It's a long process where every bone will have to be examined thoroughly. However, as Elena Maria Menotti, the archaeologist who led the excavation, decided, the couple shouldn't be separated, but they should be moved and preserved as they were discovered. So, the excavation team dug up the block of the earth in which they were found and put them in a wooden box.

The skeletons were sent to the Musei Civici in Como. In September 2011, the Valdaro Lovers were finally displayed in public at the Mantua’s Archaeological Museum.

As explained by professor Silvia Bangoli, the president of the association “Lovers in Mantua”, approximately €250,000 should be enough for the skeletons to have an exhibition center of their own. Also, Bangoli said that €200,000 more could be used for a multimedia space where the world could hear the story of the embracing skeletons. The association “Lovers of Mantua”, is still searching for a home for the ancient lovers where they can be displayed permanently.

  6. Why could my Husband not be loyal to me, respect me as his wife, love me and only me without breaking our marriage vows? My Husband’s behaviors caused me to think maybe we were not meant to be together. It hurts to the bone when your life partner turns against you, making you sad instead of being your motivator, always engaging you in constant argument and confusion with the kids. The worst is him being unfaithful, seeing other women is like stabbing you in the back. My better half caused me so much pain for over 2years and 4months, we reassembly separated like 6weeks because his continuous reckless behavior became unbearable. I searched for permanent solution to get him back to us both physical and spiritual throughout the entire 6weeks. I was lucky to have Dr. Wakina (dr.wakinalovetemple@gmail.com) handle my case after reading alot of his spell stories. “Can you help me get my Husband back” was the request I made and the rest is history. My marital home is even better since the love spell changed and brought back my Husband. Dr. Wakina made me believe in second chance.

  7. ShowBox app is truly amazing. It allows users to keep track of the latest news in Hollywood as well as new releases. In fact, new releases, both in Television and in movies, are added every single day. The only thing that can be said is that the download speeds can be improved. But it still is the best app to use for streaming videos and downloading them. The choices are exhaustive. Go here

  8. I am Yolanda Chris i will like us to share tips on how to identify a real spell caster cos a lot of people have fallen victim of scam as i have come across lots of comments lately (i was a victim too) and from experience and what i know i decide to open this thread, only fake spell casters ask for the followings: COURIER CHARGES: no matter where you are in the world, no matter the distance and continent a real spell caster will cast a spell effectively without you seeing it or the spell caster getting it to you to use it so long as he has the names and pix..the spell will work itself.. STRAIGHT: no excuses for failure, if money was needed in the first place for courier he should have say so, so one can know how prepared he is..i did rather pay $2000 at once to get my result rather than paying $200 for excuses to get more money..its not bad paying for items but the end result might be an excuse THREAT: if you get fed up of sending money after money, they begin to threaten one with death and madness.. NIGERIA; about 80% of them are Nigerians not saying they don't have real spell casters cos they are spiritually gifted in Africa but the impersonation is too much, the fake are more than the real.. i fell a victim of scam twice to a certain Dr wodu and Dr isaka they both ripped me to shred before i realized almost $3700 was gone until i came across Dr IGHO who told me how to know a fake spell caster, he helped me CURE my HSV1&2 infection without failure or excuse in 5 days.. Am Cured and happy now for about a month..
    his e-mail address is ighoitua@gmail.com. lets beware of scammers and share experience, suggestion and solutions..thanks...
