Archaeologists excavating an ancient well in eastern Croatia have discovered the skeletons of seven men whose bodies had been tossed in haphazardly. Experts think the remains belong to Roman soldiers who fought in the Battle of Mursa in A.D. 260.
The skeletons were originally recovered in 2011 in an archaeological dig ahead of planned construction at a university in Osijek, which was known as the town of Mursa during the Roman Empire. Although the skeletons were complete, they were found in varying positions in the well, including head-down.
