    A small grave site was found containing bodies in two rows in the Charterhouse Square area of London.  Pottery on site dates it to the mid-fourteenth century.  One wonders what they will do next with the bodies – will they simply rebury them in a church cemetery?http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-21784141

    Given modern sensibilities and attitudes they will not.  The dead are only sacrosanct so long as someone with a connection to the dead is around to prevent desecration of their remains.

    I am wondering if they would put the remains in a museum….I can understand if they need to remove them given the fact that they need to build something like a train station there, but they should at least remove them properly and put them in the kind of place they were in originally.
