Slain Woman Warrior Amongst a Large Burial of Medieval Knights in Guadalajara
A phenomenal research project has studied the remains of 25 individuals buried between the 12th and 15th centuries in the castle at Zorita de los Canes, Guadalajara, Spain. By examining the remains from the castle's cemetery, the team was able to deduce the diet, lifestyle, and causes of death of the warrior monks, who were members of the Order of Calatrava. Amongst these individuals, 23 died in battle, and most interestingly, one of the remains was that of a woman. Another individual’s remains out of battle were that of an infant.
