Ancient Remains Found in Southern Mexican Cave The remains of as
many as 167 people have been found in a cave in southern Mexico.
Discovered stacked atop each other, the bones were found last
week on the Nuevo Ojo de Agua ranch by local farmers. As the
area is often travelled by Central American migrants heading
north, the remains were initially suspected to be a mass grave,
similar to what has been found in the northern part of Mexico in
recent years. Further investigations by the country’s main
anthropology agency have determined that the remains seem to be
part of a 1,300-year-old pre-Hispanic cemetery. Clay artwork
that could have originated from the same era was also discovered
in the cave. Remains of 167 people found in Mexican cave [The
