Chinese House Of Horror

The remains of 97 human bodies of young and middle-aged adults were found in a small, 5,000-year-old house in the prehistoric village in Northeast China. It is definitely one of the most bizarre mysterious in human history. There are several theories about these remains, but nobody can tell what really happened to them for sure.

Prehistoric Disaster?

The bodies were placed in the space of only 20 square meters, and experts assume that people are killed in a "prehistoric disaster," the responsibility of some kind of epidemic. However, this is just an assumption. It is almost impossible to establish what is the real cause of death of these 97 people.

The settlement, known today as Hamin Manga, dates from the period when people lived in relatively small settlements, hunted and cultivated crops.

In the village were also found remains of pottery, tools for grinding, arrows and spear points.

This small house where scientists have found human remains, archaeologists have given the label "F40".

"Hamin Manga is the largest and best preserved prehistoric village ever found in northeastern China," wrote a team of archaeologists in a report published in the latest issue of the journal "Chinese Archaeology."

"Skeletons on the northeastern side are relatively complete, and those on the east side have only the skull, with very meager remains of bones of limbs," write archaeologists.

"On the south side of the limb bones were discovered in a rather messy and form two or three layers. On the floor were scattered numerous human skeletons, without any order. "

In another report, the scientists suggest that the people in the house died of "prehistoric catastrophe" which led to bodies being crammed into the house, as saying, "LiveScience," at one time the building was burned.

The fire was probably caused the fall of the roof structure, and the parts of the skull and bones of the limbs not only charred, but somehow deformed, written by archaeologists.

The remains were never buried, and they are discovered 5,000 years later.

A team of anthropologists from the Jilin University analyzed prehistoric remains, in an effort to determine what happened to those people.

"Many archaeological findings in China include human remains in facilities that suggest that the catastrophe happened to them," according to the study.

Mongolia

An example of such sites and Hamin Manga (in the autonomous region of Inner Mongolia), where the remains of human skeletons found in a destroyed building, and "similarity suggests that the cause of death of people in Hamin Mangi similar to the site of Mijazigou.

"There is a possibility that it was an outbreak of acute infectious diseases," the researchers said, but not speculate on where the disease in question.

Of course, many people are now concerned about this “mysterious” illness because they think that scientists can activate it during the DNA research. Some experts explains that there is a small possibility that viruses somehow managed to survive all these years and that they will now be dangerous for people once again.
