The real sensation scientists call it that Jukka bodies were recovered from practically all the bones. The carcass was carefully dissected. On the back is marked with incisions. If it did the ancient hunters, it is unclear why they did not eat meat, and only pulled out the bones and put them next to the dead body of an animal. Perhaps paleontologists faced with clear evidence of a prehistoric ritual.
According to a leading researcher at the Institute of Geology, Diamond and Precious Metal North Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences Gennady Boeskorov, to the mystery of Yucca international team of scientists closely begin in February next year. In the meantime, under the strict supervision of mammoth kept in a special refrigerator.
