Bizarre Archaeological Finds That Still Baffle Scientists Today

The Venetian Vampire

This skeleton was found in a mass grave in Venice. The subject was likely buried alive with a brick placed in between their teeth in suspicion that they were a vampire. This was a common, yet cruel, method of murder for poor individuals that were suspected of extermination for people who had the Black Death. This disease was originally suspected to be some sort of vampire causing disease, and not the terrible flesh-eating plague it actually was.
