Weerdinge Men
100 B.C.-A.D. 50 Found in Drenthe, The Netherlands in 1904
They were long called the "Weerdinge couple" and thought to be a man and a
woman. Experts now speculate these two men may have been brothers, lovers, or
father and son. One of them suffered a large chest wound, and his intestines
spilled out when he was laid in his grave. According to the Roman historian
Strabo, some Iron Age Europeans tried to divine the future by "reading" a
victim's entrails.
