Ireland.... ancient home of the zombies!

Two early medieval skeletons were unearthed recently in Ireland with large stones wedged into their mouths -- evidence, archaeologists say, that it was feared the individuals would rise from their graves like zombies.

The skeletons, which were featured in a British documentary last week, emerged during a series of digs carried out between 2005 and 2009 at Kilteasheen, near Loch Key in Ireland by a team of archaeologists led by Chris Read from the Institute of Technology in Sligo, Ireland and Thomas Finan from the University of St. Louis.

I think we should start doing things to freak out further generations like they did.
Like im going to be buried with a cat up my ass, Covered in euro coins and with one 50 cent coin, While my hands are left in the rock on gesture! \m/
And both my thumbs in the stomach of the cat.

Let the people of 2500 figure that out!!!

Stupid archeologists, obviously the hapless people died because they tried to eat really big rocks

Has anyone been round to the archaeologists house to make sure they didn't turn into zombies?
