An Archaelogical Find: Ancient Romantic Death (Aww~)

Source.

Two 5000 year-old skeletons were found in Mantau, both of them still embracing eachother. I'm not much of one for romance stories and all that jazz, but I can't help but go "aww" when I look at this. Rather interesting from an emotional and archaeological standpoint. Bear in mind all the variables that should've budged the skeletons around, to boot!

A touching find, I gotta say =) Looks like the end result of something outta Shakespeare. Only difference is that I wasn't bugged by one of the characters... >_>

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Kinda gruesome, but I guess it's an aquired taste.

We'll call the movie "Judgement 'Tang"! It'll outsell "Tit-tanic"!

How ya doing, buddy?

Dunno who takes pleasure in scooting around skeletons. But take a look at the topside weathering and damage (a la broken skull on the rightward one). I doubt someone moved them after they died. This is simply what it appears as, to be blunt.

If you mean water or winds, that ain't possible. They wouldn't have been so neatly intertwined like this if a flood smashed them together.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Reading is your friend~

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Yeah, I bet he was boning her, big time.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Spoiler:

THE MAIN CHARACTERS DIE

;3

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
