The skeletons were laid on their back, with their skulls facing west.
Revenant graves dating back thousands of years have been found in various locations across Europe. These burials are characterized by evidence of precautions taken to prevent the dead from rising. Such measures could include placing large stones on the legs of the deceased or piercing the body with a lance to fix it to the ground.In the case of one of the recently discovered remains in Poland, the child's head appears to have been removed from its torso.
