Medieval girl buried face down with bound ankles, likely so she couldn't 'return' from the grave

We see a skeleton face down in a dirt grave. The ankles are very close together, indicating that they were once bound.

Before abandoning their settlement, a medieval community in England tore down an elaborate entrance gate and buried a 15-year-old girl in its place. And in a final act marking her as different, they likely bound her ankles and interred her face down, a new analysis reveals.

The girl's unusual burial on the boundary of the settlement is an expression of "otherness," archaeologists noted.
