webfact Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 In a startling discovery, three human skeletons were uncovered in concrete blocks at the central stadium in Nakhon Si Thammarat. During construction of a drainage system behind two soccer pitches, skeletal remains estimated to be a century old were uncovered, reported Siam Rath. As digging progressed from the south towards the north, fragments resembling limbs and skulls emerged every 20-30 meters. Picture: Siam Rath Authorities speculate that these remains belonged to individuals from a bygone era, buried long before the stadium's construction. Historically, the land belonged to the noble "Chatti Trakarnkosol" family who donated it for the stadium's construction decades ago. Picture: Siam Rath This region could have housed ancient graves or ancestral burial grounds. Interestingly, a similar burial site, belonging to a significant historical figure, lies nearby in the grounds of the Sri Thammarat School and dates back over 200 years. Previously, a similar project in the vicinity led to the discovery of one set of remains, bringing the total count to four. Picture: Siam Rath Officials have collected the skeletons for further investigation, collaborating with the Department of Fine Arts and the Ministry of Culture to ascertain the facts.

Reference (from the UK): Experts are trying to solve the mystery behind dozens of skeletons, some with their hands tied behind backs, that were discovered in a mass grave at a Buckinghamshire building site. Around 80 bodies were found in late 2019 on land being prepared for a new retirement development. Experts know the skeletons date from between Roman times and the 18th century. But they were not buried in an “organised” cemetery or given a Christian burial. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/bodies-found-skeletons-buried-hands-tied-b1917108.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
