Archaeologists in France have uncovered an excavation site containing the skeletal remains of over two dozen stallions, potentially indicating a sacrificial ritual. The site dates back to the fifth or sixth century and is believed to have been the scene of an extraordinary burial of horses. The horses, all adult males, were meticulously placed on their right sides in two rows and on two levels, suggesting a simultaneous burial. Their small stature indicates they were likely Gallic livestock. Also found within the pits were a pair of adult dogs. The team of archaeologists theorizes that the horses and dogs may have been part of a sacrificial ceremony, though further research is needed to confirm this hypothesis. The discovery may be linked to other horse burials and sacrifices in the area, possibly connected to the Gallic Wars led by Julius Caesar.
