Researchers reported that, “except for three adult burials (two females and one male), all the human skeletal remains were of children, ranging in age from approximately five to fourteen years, with the majority falling in the range of eight to twelve years of age.” (Gabriel Prieto/National Geographic via AP) XLAT301 XLAT301
