Ahoy mateys! Gather 'round fer a tale o' bones and buried treasure! In the frosty winter o' 2023-2024, a landlubber in a Parisian suburb stumbled upon a skeleton in his basement, sending the archaeologists o' Archeodunum Research Center a-callin'. What a find, ye scallywags! One bony lad turned into a whole horde o' 38 burials hidin' in four rooms!As the treasure-hunters dug deeper, they unearthed a graveyard from the Middle Ages, once thought to be linked to a chapel built atop a pagan site. Aye, the chapel be as old as a sea shanty from the 7th century, though no sturdy evidence remained. But lo! The graves, older than a pirate's tales, dated back to the 3rd century A.D.!
These ancient souls were laid to rest in fancy plaster sarcophagi, but, alas, they were as bare as a shipwrecked sailor! Each sarcophagus held only one skeleton, unlike the Roman times when they were crammed into wooden boxes like sardines in a barrel.
Now, the clever scholars be investigatin' who these poor souls were, hopin' to uncover their secrets and unravel the mysteries of how the dead were honored through the ages. So, raise a tankard to the past, and let the digging continue!
