Genocidal Species
A new mass grave has recently been discovered in Serbia. Fortunately, if a mass grave can be called fortunate, it is not from our recent war history, but from human prehistory. The massacre occurred about 2,800 years ago, and the bodies of 77 individuals were buried at the Gomolava site near Hrtkovci in Vojvodina. More precisely, these remains were found 50 years ago and transferred to the Museum of Vojvodina in Novi Sad.
TL;DR
- A 2,800-year-old mass grave in Serbia reveals evidence of a massacre, not a pandemic.
- The victims were predominantly women and children, killed by blunt force trauma.
- Analysis suggests systematic, regional extermination and organized mass murder.
- The site near Hrtkovci is noted for its historical irony due to a later war crime.
- The article references other prehistoric violent deaths (Ötzi, Kennewick Man) and ancient texts describing widespread violence.
- It concludes that human species has a history of brutal extermination, with peace being the exception.
