Apparently the notion of a “death spiral” is older than I imagined.

“...10 ancient skeletons arranged in a spiral with their bodies interlocked...”

At least it wasn’t a human centipede.

This would predate the Aztecs founding what is now Mexico City by over three thousand years. At some point between there was a major volcanic eruption that covered this unique conical pyramid in the same valley in lava up to ten meters (about 33 feet) thick. Really interesting find.

I always wondered where Ray Harryhausen got that idea.

It would be really cool if the bodies were laid out in a Fibonacci sequence like a spiral shell.

That was the original plan, but they were in a hurry ...

Yeah, that’s gotta be it. ;^) Best evidence found is laminates in the grave, because the Lamanites always worked with laminates.

My pleasure.
