An interesting archaeological discovery in Dorset has found the decapitated, naked bodies of at least 51 young men found thrown into a old quarry and their heads piled on top. Evidence suggests that the prisoners (they were naked and unarmed), were a fighting force who were captured, and then decapitated in a rather messy manner.
Whether they were Vikings (likely) or Saxons is not absolutely certain, but the mass execution and grave rings uncannily true with events in the 20th century, in Iraq or the Balkans.
We have not improved much in the last thousand years.

Moderation is on for older posts to stop spamming and comments that are off topic or inappropriate from being posted .... comments are reviewed within 48 hours.

Vexatious comments that may cause upset to other commentators, or that are attempting to espouse a particular wider political view, are reviewed before acceptance. But a certain amount of debate around a post topic is accepted, as long as it remains generally on topic and is not an attempt to become sounding board for some other cause.
