I don't think I agree.
These bodies were found some distance from the actual battlefield, and the preponderance of the blows focused on their heads was unusual.
The bodies were stripped before burial and one showed evidence of the deliberate removal of an ear.
The archaeologists note the severity and 'inhumanity' of the violence directed at these individuals.
