A complete skeleton discovered in a Gallo-Roman tomb in western Belgium was not Roman after all, but a strange combination of people spanning thousands of years.
Rested cross-legged and on their right side, the remains include the long bones of seven unrelated Stone Age men and women of varying ages, some centuries apart, and those of deceased Romans. Contains a female skull.
