Vráble Neolithic Bodies
@neolithicbodies.bsky.social
DFG-funded research project investigating unusual body manipulations and depositional practices at the Neolithic settlement Vráble-Vel’ké Lehemby (Slovakia). A collaboration beetween Kiel University and the Slovak Academy of Sciences (Nitra).
#Settlement area, economy, and #headlessbodies in the ditch – #Vráble is undoubtedly one of the most exceptional #LBK sites. However, without our partners, the specialists at the #SlovakAcademyOfSciences, it would have remained hidden forever… 🇸🇰

A fascinating article by @andrewcurry.com @science.org!
🔬....we hope to find out soon whether 'killings/massacres' actually happened in Vráble or whether ritual practices took place here–skull removal and decapitation are different procedures... 💀👀 stay tuned!
