Mystery of Disarticulated Donkey
In Florida, during a construction the skeleton of a 17th-century donkey uncovered, all four of its legs had been dis articulated skillfully at the joints. The four limbs placed in the grave with the torso; torso and limbs arranged in a north-south direction. Historical documents suggest Indians provided the labor to mine coquina and transport it to the site of the Castillo. If you have answer to any of the following questions, email archaeology.org.
