Apart from humans, various types of animals have also been living on this earth for thousands of years. Some creatures are now extinct, while some still exist. There are many such places on earth, from where remains of extinct animals are found and continue to surprise people. Not only animals but also the remains of humans who lived on earth thousands of years ago are often found at many places. A similar discovery was made in Germany a few years ago. Here geologists found a 9 thousand year old tomb, which remained a mystery to them for years, but now this mystery has been revealed and this mystery is shocking.
According to the report of the website Live Science, in the year 1934, a laborer found a grave in a garden located in Bad Durenberg, East Germany, which contained the remains of an adult woman and a child. According to estimates, this tomb is from 7000-6800 BC i.e. about 9,000 years old. Scientists had come to know about this, but the relationship between the woman and the child remained a mystery. Then it was believed that this was a mother-son pair, who were buried together, but now 89 years after the discovery of this grave, scientists have come to know their truth.
What was the relationship between the woman and the child?
A genetic analysis showed that the woman and the child had a relationship, but a long-term relationship. According to reports, the child was the fourth or fifth generation child of the woman. Researchers claim that the child may have been buried decades later in a grave with his great-grandmother. Based on the strange things buried with them, it was speculated that the woman found in the grave might have been a magician.
After all, who was the woman?
Analysis revealed that when the woman died, she would have been 30 to 40 years old. She was of slim build and her height was about five feet 1 inch. According to co-author of this research, Wolfgang Haack, the woman’s hair and skin color were darker than that of modern Europeans and her eyes were probably light blue. He said these characteristics are common among Western European hunters. In such a situation, it is believed that both the woman and the child might have belonged to this hunter family.
