Air na m貌intichean, tha daoine a tha a' buain mh貌nach air a bhith a' tighinn tarsainn air na ceudan de chuirp a tha air a bhith gl猫idhte sa mh貌ine airson nan ceudan de bhliadhnaichean. Thairis air iomadach bliadhna, cha robh luchd-rannsachaidh a' tuigsinn ciamar a chaidh na daoine a le貌n; amhaichean air an gearradh, d矛-cheannadh, caolain air an tarraing a-mach, cn脿mhan air am briseadh agus comharran s脿thaidh. Tha fi霉 's r貌pan crochaidh fhathast teann timcheall nan amhaichean aca. Co bh' anns na daoine a chaidh fh脿gail sna boglaichean a-measg an eabar? Anns a' phr貌gram seo, le taic bho teicne貌las 霉r, tha e貌laichean cuirp-balmaichte a' faighinn fiosrachadh as 霉r agus a' beachdachadh air ciamar agus carson a chaochail na daoine seo.
Using CT scans, advanced imaging and DNA testing, this documentary tries to unlock the stories behind mysterious deaths in Northern Europe's ancient bogs.
Across the moors, peat-cutters digging into the soil for fuel have unearthed hundreds of well-preserved mummies. Investigators puzzled for decades over the victims' disturbing injuries, which include slit throats, decapitation, disembowelment, smashed bones and stab marks. Some bodies even bear nooses or cords, still snug around their necks. Who were these people, mangled and mired in the bogs?
In this programme, bog mummy experts discover new evidence obtained through cutting-edge technology and share their own theories as to why these people died.
