Rare centuries-old bone floor uncovered at building in the Netherlands. See the find
Renovations of a medieval building in the Netherlands revealed a very rare find: a floor made of bones, officials said. From the outside, the building in downtown Alkmaar looks worn and unoccupied but relatively well-kept. It seems to fit in with its surroundings on the narrow cobblestone street, not unique yet not ugly. But looks can be deceiving.
