Mass graves of Black Death victims found in Germany

A team of archaeologists conducting an exploration in Germany, in anticipation of an upcoming apartment complex construction, made significant discoveries.

Initially finding remnants of a fortification dating back to around 1634 A.D., the archaeologists were then astonished to uncover eight mass graves from two distinct Black Death events in the northern part of the site.

In Terra Veritas reported that these burials, containing over a thousand skeletons of Plague victims, may constitute the largest mass grave ever excavated in Europe.

The eight burials are categorized into two groups. The first group, likely predating the fortification, is covered with a layer of sand, potentially soil excavated for the 1634 building construction.

The second group of graves seems to be slightly more recent, the Miami Herald reported.
