Archaeological Discovery of Ancient Roman Horse Cemetery in Bad Cannstatt, Germany
Archaeologists in Brussels, Belgium, discovered a cemetery with horse skeletons dating back to ancient Rome in Bad Cannstatt, Germany. The horses were likely part of a Roman cavalry unit stationed in the region around the second century A.D. The site revealed over 100 horse skeletons buried individually in shallow pits, possibly due to illness or injury, rather than a single event like a battle.
