Human remains discovered at the Alamo during archaeological exploration


Three sets of human remains were found at the Alamo during an archeological exploration stemming from a major renovation at the Texas shrine, state officials said Friday. "The remains encountered appear to be indicative of a teenage or young adult, infant, and large adult," the Texas General Land Office said in a release. The bodies were discovered during an exploration of the Monks Burial Room and Nave, which is the central section of the Alamo Church. The Alamo Mission Archaeological Advisory Committee said the recent archeological find wasn't the first time remains have been found at the revered landmark. In October, the Land Office said human bone fragments were found by excavators.
