Strange history Such an unofficial title received among archaeologists a strange burial


Strange history Such an unofficial title received among archaeologists a strange burial, relating to the end of the X - beginning of the XI century.

 It was discovered in 1994 near the Czech town of Chelakovica. In eleven pits, the remains of 13 people were laid, bound by leather belts and with aspen rings stuck in the heart. 

Some of the dead also had their hands and heads cut off. According to pagan beliefs and rituals, it was done to vampires, rising at night from their graves and drinking human blood. 

Studies have shown that buried bones belong to local residents - exclusively to men of about the same age. What happened in this area? The mass insanity of the inhabitants of the village of Chelakovica, which led to the tragedy, or some of its inhabitants were victims of an epidemic that led to "vampirism"?

 Historical chronicles have not kept these events for us. The mystery of the Chelakovitsky cemetery of vampires remains unsolved.
