The skeletons of a "Romeo and Juliet" couple found last February near Verona, Italy, could be pretty young compared to their newly found Turkish counterparts, 3,000 years older. The two ancient skeletons encountered in each other's arms in a grave in Turkey seem to be the subject of the oldest love story to last for eternity. The bones could belong to a 30-year-old man and a 20-year-old woman and we discoverer last week in the southeastern Turkey (province of Diyarbakir, Bismil district) under the floor of an ancient house at the Hakemi Use site.
"The way they were buried signifies that they were lovers. An illness or even a crime of love may have been the cause of their deaths.
