      That’s an interesting question. The oldest bones I’ve ever looked at were around 14,000 years old. They were from Sudan, a country in northern Africa.

      The weirdest thing about them is that some of them were partly mummified – especially their hands and feet. You could clearly see it was mostly bone, but they were joined together by some remaining skin. Isn’t that gross, but also cool?

      Michael 🙂
