Discovery of 5,000-year-old skull sparks mystery

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

An Unbroken skull was found on the banks of the River Avon in Worcestershire. The skull is believed to be of a middle aged woman living in 3,300 BC. Carbon dating technology places the piece between 3,338BC and 3,035 BC. The 'exceptional' find suggests there is an undiscovered burial site nearby, but Archaeologists say it could not have survived this long in water.
