The remains were located in clusters, indicating they were caught in a bend in the river. Their location also indicates that they were washed out of the burial ground during Roman times. The Museum of London Archaeology is now analysing the finds, hoping to find out more about the age, sex, and diet of these people of the past. Since Crossrail construction began in 2009, more than 10,000 items, spanning more than 55 million years of London’s history, have been discovered.
