The centuries-old complete skeleton of a medieval knight was found under the former site of a famous ice cream shop in Poland, researchers said.

The skeleton was found in northern Italy in 2007, but a recent analysis on the body published in Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences in April revealed the likely cause of death.

Anthropologists dug up a skeleton in Italy of a man who had a knife in place of his missing right hand. The man may have been an early medical miracle.

The skeleton had lain buried for about 500 years in the muddy silt of Chamber’s Wharf, a site located at a bend in the river just downstream from the Tower of London.

Archaeologists say a skeleton found with a nail through its foot is evidence of Roman crucifixion. The skeleton with a nail lodged through his heel was uncovered at a dig in Cambridgeshire, England.
