NovaSeason 33, Episode 3 of 19 : The Perfect Corpse
The moist earth of central Ireland halts decomposition, perfectly preserving stunning evidence of brutal ritualistic killings from the prehistoric Iron Age over 2,000 years ago. Make no mistake, these are not skeletons or mummies, but the soft tissue and remains of people trapped in time. NOVA is granted exclusive access to the investigation of two recently unearthed and exceedingly rare bog bodies. Enter the lab with the experts as they push archaeological forensics to its limits.
