Mysterious mummification methods preserve organs, skin, and even hair, giving historians a glimpse into a lost civilization. Scattered around the tombs of ancient Japanese emperors and kings are mysterious figurines made of clay. Taking on the aspect of people, animals, and structures, what do the Haniwa figurines tell us about ancient Japanese beliefs surrounding the afterlife?

The find adds yet another perplexing facet to the mystery of Stonehenge and Europe's megaliths. Written by Go Button Media See less
