Who were these people? Or what made them fight and die together? More than 600 years later, an international group of archaeologists is attempting to find out more.
investigate some of the finds from the largest mass grave from a medieval battle ever found. If you win or lose a battle, it's a momentous occasion for either the victors or the losers. They'll try to shed light on the men who wore this armor and fought this battle. That's a thought that's been cut off.
