"Many Bones Found in Ruins"
On the 8th, in a survey of an ancient castle ruins in the northern part of the prefecture, a large number of human bones were discovered in the ground.
Stacked tombstones were excavated from the center of the castle, an area thought to be the courtyard. Bone after bone was discovered beneath them.
All bones are thought to be from the time the castle was built. The burial clothes seem to indicate they are from laborers who built the castle.
It is believed they were buried after the castle's completion to protect the plan of the castle or the location of treasure, or perhaps those who built the castle were killed as a sacrifice.
