Aaaaaand they were both dudes.
I was excited about the potential implications of this, but after some research…no. They were not dudes. Thanks for wasting my time.
Excuse me, I meant to say they were not both dudes, the remains on the left has been confirmed to be female.
So beautiful…and precious.
Really? They r both male? That opens up a whole new chapter in the story of platonic love in the east! I always suspected so…
No shaily.. unfortunately nowadays by the sience you can find out that loving in Iran is older than the time. when all the world had problems with cruelty.
She was joking actually, the left skeleton has been confirmed to be female.
