Human remains uncovered in Portugal date back 8,000 years, and could provide the earliest evidence of mummification, a new study says.
Researchers have studied photographs of skeletal remains of 13 human individuals excavated in the early 1960s in the Sado Valley, Portugal.
They were able to reconstruct the positions in which the bodies were buried, providing 'a unique opportunity' to learn more about 8,000-year-old mortuary rituals.
