Vampire-killing ritual could explain prehistoric skeletons found in Yorkshire
Exclusive: Chariot with remains of two ponies also unearthed in ‘remarkable’ Iron Age graves

Two of the most bizarre prehistoric human burials ever found in Britain have been discovered by archaeologists in Yorkshire.

Excavations near the town of Pocklington have unearthed a pair of mysterious 3rd century BC Iron Age graves containing the skeletons of potentially high status individuals whose dispatch to the next world had featured some very unusual rituals, including possible vampire-killing ones.

The chariot burial excavation will be featured in the archaeological TV programme, Digging for Britain, on BBC Four on 19 December.

Fiat Panda rates worst new model for safety
It’s not good news for the new Jeep Wrangler either: ‘Buyers outlaying over £50,000 on a car should expect more than a one-star safety rating’

If you thought all new cars are the safest they can be… think again. The well-respected and independent Thatcham vehicle testing laboratory has given the 2018 facelift model Fiat Panda one of the lowest ratings in its history – zero points.
