10. First Identical Twins
An Upper Paleolithic burial site in modern-day Austria contains the oldest-known remains of identical human twins! Dating back roughly 31,000 years, the Stone Age grave was discovered in 2005 at the Krems-Wachtberg archaeological site, which sits along the banks of the Danube River. It contains the skeletons of an infant who died shortly after childbirth and their sibling, who survived for around seven weeks before passing away.

9. Squatting Skeleton
In May of last year, archaeologists were performing a routine excavation prior to wind turbine construction in the German state of Brandenburg.
Here they were surprised to discover a strange squatting skeleton belonging to a woman who died over 4,000 years ago.

8. SKELETON LAKE
Located at Roopkund Lake deep within the Himalayas, a site dubbed “Skeleton Lake” has perplexed experts since its discovery in 1942 by a British guide. Here at 16,499 feet (5,029 meters) above sea level, lie hundreds of human skeletons.

7. A Medieval Female Criminal
In 2017, archaeologists working in southern Bulgaria discovered a late medieval grave containing a woman who was buried face-down with her hands tied behind her back. Found in a necropolis on the Nebet Tepe Hill in the modern-day city of Plovdiv, the odd burial could have belonged to a bandit or some other sort of criminal, whose strange position was likely a punishment for an alleged wrongdoing she committed while she was alive.

6. Baby Buried In Jar
Late last year, archaeologists in Jaffa, Israel discovered the skeleton of a human baby inside a 3,800-year-old jar. Archaeologists from the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) unearthed the poorly-preserved remains from a shallow pit roughly 10 feet (3 meters) below sea level while performing routine excavations of a 4,000-year-old city ahead of a construction project.

5. Ur Skeleton
During the summer of 2014, scientists at the Penn Museum in Philadelphia rediscovered a 6,500-year-old human skeleton that had sat in a coffin-like box in a storage room for 85 years. There was no documentation of its identity, leaving the skeleton’s origins and life story a mystery.

4. Bizarre Burials
Swiss anthropologist Amelie Alterauge was perplexed when someone found a middle-aged man buried face-down at a 400-year-old cemetery in Bern. He was laid to rest with an iron knife and a purse full of coins dating back between 1630 and 1650 A.D. in the crook of his arm.

3. Six-Headed Chief
In the 14th century, a warrior in his 40s died and was buried in Scotland’s Easter Ross region, in what is now the fishing village of Portmahomack. He was laid to rest in a ceremonial fashion, with an array of other human remains surrounding his head.

2. Casket on the Shore
While walking along the shore at Bridge of Don near Aberdeen, Scotland in early 2019, a family spotted an eroding casket containing a woman’s skeletal remains.

1. STRANGE VIKING DUO
In late 2019, archaeologists dug up two Viking corpses buried with their longboats -- one on top of the other -- in Vinjeøra, central Norway. The pair died nearly a year apart, with the first burial, a man, dating back to the 8th century, and the second burial, a woman, dating back to the 9th century.
