The Earth holds so many secrets. There are depths that haven't yet been traveled and land that hasn't been traversed.
And no one knows what will be found there when those areas are finally discovered.
Maybe a new species of dinosaur is just waiting to be researched on some far off island. Or one of the great mysteries of our history will be solved. (They never did find Amelia Earhart after her plane went down all those years ago!)
But what's the most intriguing thing of all? When there are discoveries made right under our noses. They've been waiting there this whole time and no one has bothered to notice.
Or something was hiding them, protecting them for as long as we've been around.
This is exactly the kind of mystery that has developed in Collooney, Ireland, after an ancient beech tree was uprooted. Hidden beneath the tree was the shallow grave of a man who lived 1,000 years ago.
His skeleton is in good enough condition for researchers to draw a few conclusions, none of which point to a happy existence for our mystery man.
He was found to have been a tall man who lived a hard life and died a violent death, with many stab wounds to show for it.
Now that's a crazy discovery!
