Bronze Age Horror: A Violent Past

A recent discovery in Somerset reveals a shocking Bronze Age massacre, where at least 37 people were brutally killed.

The remains show signs of systematic dismemberment and cannibalism, indicating a level of extreme violence previously unknown.

Experts believe the act was ritualistic, possibly driven by revenge and aimed at humiliating the victims and their community.

This challenges the common belief of a peaceful Bronze Age, highlighting the complexities of human conflict throughout history.
