| 1365229 | 2014-01-15 19:08:00 | Very sad, so many men died in the First World War. And I read the other day that in Russia there are many groups of people digging in the forests looking fro bodies of soldiers that they try to identify and bury properly. (Russia lost millions of people in the Second World War) |

It sounds as though the White War had some of the characteristics of a civil war, and all the horrors that go with family members fighting relatives on the other side. Incidentally I am glad the local people rebelled against the scientists treating their dead as scientific subjects. I am constantly amazed at how some European archaeologists think they can do anything with a corpse, without any thought given to the sort of dignity we normally accord to deceased people. | John H (8) | ||
