to a World War II–era mass grave outside of concentration camps, where research on human remains is often prohibited by Jewish religious belief. Although there were many similar massacres, “There hasn’t been research so far on a World War II site like this,” says University of Vienna archaeologist Claudia Theune. “It adds another category of crime scene.

Researchers also recovered more than 1 ton of human bone. “That amount seems to confirm the historical records that 400 or 500 people were killed and burned” in the 1945 massacre, Kobiałka says. “I’m an experienced archaeologist, but I’ve never experienced anything like this. It was really a horror.”
