Researchers from the University of Leicester City made an extraordinary discovery. They found the remains of a man and a woman who are holding hands buried. The couple would be 700 years as lying, the researchers said.

Archeologist, Vicki Score believes that the two were about the same age when they died. Why they are buried right on that spot is not clear, especially since just down Hallaton was a church that was in excellent condition.

According Sore is a possibility that the place had a special meaning. Earlier, other people were buried in Leiceser found. Besides the dead couple, archaeologists also found in the place tiles from a Roman building.
