The Economist has a recent piece about salvage archaeology of a mass grave resulting from the Battle of Towton. Popular coverage of archaeology is typically embarrassingly poor in that the journalist either clearly doesn’t understand the topic and/or writes down to the audience, but this write-up isn’t so bad despite centering on forensics (I personally find the post-CSI glut of forensic procedurals and their popularity unnerving; there’s something both desensitizing and pornographic about their treatment of violence in my eyes). LINK for those interested.
