Dying Alexander (Photo by Urek Meniashvili) |
During an excavation at the Lechlade Skate Park in the United Kingdom, archaeologists discovered “the remains of a Bronze Age chieftain buried with profound wealth.” This seems akin to discovering the remains of Alexander the Great (which are still being searched for) beneath a penny arcade.
Stranger still was finding an older second skeleton right nearby, with bones arranged in a seated position. Was this the chieftain's father? Mentor? We'll probably never know.
But what we do know is that death has a profound way of teaching us all a thing or two about humility…
