London excavation ucovers victims of epidemics

de bene esse: literally, of well-being, morally acceptable but subject to future validation or exception

During an excavation in London, archaeologists found a total of 1,500 human bodies, many buried hastily in a wave of epidemics that struck the quickly expanding city more than 150 years ago. Interestingly, one coffin contained bone fragments that were decidedly not human. They were walrus. http://oak.ctx.ly/r/8jjd
