    Stealing this thread from another site but it's interesting:

    A team of archaeologists is currently conducting excavation work on 20 hectares of land in Fleury-sur-Orne (northwestern France), which is earmarked for residential development. This site has revealed an important Middle Neolithic (4500 BC) necropolis containing twenty monuments and some intact burials.

    These excavations will lead to a series of analyses which will include palaeo-genetic, isotopic, parasitological, in order to find out more about the lineage of these groups, their diet, and the illnesses they suffered from.
