Just in time for Valentine's Day

The Discovery Channel posted an article about the discovery of two 5,000 to 6,000-year-old people found buried together in a loving embrace. What's more is that the couple were discovered near Verona where Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" was set. Archaeologists are going to study the remains and the few artifacts found around the site to determine more information. It's kind of an emotional picture given that the bodies are in such a position, but maybe that's just my soft side talking.

Just as long as the husband didn't die first and their culture dictated that the wife die with him.
