Researchers in Maryland discovered the grave of a teenager who may have been one of the first European colonists to come to the New World.
Archaeologists in Maryland have unearthed the skeleton of a teenage boy who may have been an early colonist who voyaged to the New World around 400 years ago.
"We were intrigued to find a burial that looked like the individual was placed there haphazardly, with his hips cocked out to one side and his arm stretched across his body in an extreme fashion," Travis Parno , acting executive director of Historic St. Mary's City, told Live Science."It looked like he was unceremoniously placed or dumped in the grave."
"His left hand was clenched in a fist, and his right scapula [shoulder blade] is almost vertical — normally your shoulder blade lies flat when you're on your back — but instead he had this extreme torque of that shoulder," Parno said."This all suggested that the young man was buried during rigor mortis. When his body finally relaxed, there was no place for [his extremities] to go because they were tightly packed in the soil.
