According to the archaeologist, it is a rare find, mainly because of the place where the skeletons were found. “We are located outside the old city center with few buildings right nearby, so it is a unique place to find human remains.”
Many questions
The bone remains are likely from men 15 to 30 years old. Archaeologists suspect that they lived between the Middle Ages and the 17th and 18th centuries, but further research should provide more clarity on this. They also have many questions: “Why are these people lying here? What caused them to die? Could it be related to historical events?”, Says Van der Heul.
The bones are now being collected and taken to a specialist, after which they probably end up in an archaeological depot. The site is currently being secured. “Otherwise we will soon have a body without a skull. That would be a shame.”
