Ancient Remains of Child Given a 'Vampire Burial' Were Found in a Baby Cemetery in Italy
How does one bury a vampire? They sleep in coffins and are technically already dead, so it's a tricky question. It turns out that 5th century Italians had a method for keeping the dead from rising again to rip open throats and speak in overwrought accents: placing a big rock in the mouths of the deceased before throwing them in the ground.
Indeed, the remains of a 10-year-old child given this type of vampire burial were unearthed over the summer by a team of University of Arizona and Stanford University archaeologists.
