In some ways it's nice, because for it to have survived past when it's abnormalities became apparent, it must have had some kind of family or tribal support, suggesting someone embraced the kid as human rather than drowning him in a sack, or some other method of killing. How the two skeletons died is another question, but for the kid to have survived that long shows that as a species we're not universally aggressive or irrational. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find enough information about the discovery to know any more about it. I know that archaeologists look for objects/trinkets/clothes/food buried with corpses to try and establish their social status. It's a shame that the alien angle detracts from the stories associated with the two corpses, I don't think we'll ever know
. How people must have reacted to it is just as interesting, especially in
light of the other corpse being unrelated. [edit on 4-4-2009 by jackphotohobby]
