Ancient skeletal remains buried with ivory tusks, ostrich eggshells, and a rock crystal dagger discovered in a tomb near Seville, Spain, in 2008 clearly indicate that the skeletal remains belonged to a high-status individual in the past. Initially, they were thought to be those of a young male. However, a new bone analysis method revealed that the remains are actually of a woman.
