The mystery of the bodies in the bog |
|
|
|
An investigation into the mysteries of 2,000 year old bodies found in the peat bogs of Northern Europe. |
For centuries, people have dug peat to use as a cheap fuel for fires. Two
men were doing this at a peat bog in Denmark in 1950 when they had a horrible
shock - at their feet was a dead body! The police were called in because there
was a rope around the man's neck.
An old woman said that a local man had
gone missing some time before. Everyone thought he had fallen into the bog while
he was drunk. Now it seemed he had been murdered.
The police lost
interest when the science report came through - the man had been dead for nearly
2,000 years...
