The earth keeps many secrets in its bowels. Many of them hide crimes centuries ago. Sometimes the study of unique archaeological finds turns into an investigation of the criminal mysteries of the past, which impress modern people with their cruelty. Although it is already pointless to expose the ancient killers, the discovered facts can tell a lot about the stories of our ancestors unknown to science. In such a study, archaeologists cannot do without the help of leading forensic experts.

During excavations in the north of France, thousands of human bones were found, but there was not a single skull here. Who beheaded this brave army, and why were their remains buried in the church crypt? In England, not far from Avebury, a skeleton of a man with traces of a stab wound from a sword on the skull was discovered under a megalith. Strange tools lay next to him — scissors and an iron probe. Perhaps this is the remains of a medieval surgeon? Why was he killed and buried here?
