I came across this photo on Facebook of this skeletal remains of a couple holding hands for 1,500 years. Which is just 'awe'. I searched and I found a article NBCNEWS did of the find. Seems legit. They are of the Roman Era (5th & 6th Century AD) in Central-Northern Italy. While it doesn't really state what happened the article mentioned the Black Plague. They weren't rich. They were buried facing each over and sometime after the burial the husband's head somehow rolled.
