12,000-year-old Göbeklitepe burials explain scattered bones

Automated excerpt

Since excavations began in 1995, researchers have recovered hundreds of human bone fragments scattered through the site. The study examined the two burials and compared their bones with the scattered remains from the monumental buildings. Soil pressure also fractured larger bones. Some human bones at Göbeklitepe show deliberate treatment, especially certain skulls with deep cuts.
