RE: On the Verge of an Unexpected Discovery
A beautiful read indeed!
I'm absolutely enthralled by the detailed historical narrative, especially the vivid description of the Huns' invasion and Attila's powerful reign. The prospect of discovering Attila's grave in the Carpathians is both thrilling and monumental. 🤞
I'm just thinking, why would they choose such a unique burial site... I'm not much into history, was it a common thing back then?? If thought to be true, they planned everything to the smallest detail. Diverting the water of river and then re-diverting it along it's normal course. There must be a logical explanations for this... Other than keeping the burial site hidden.

Very informative and structured post.
I read that in those days there was a practice of burying great leaders in riverbeds. At least one such burial was found in Bulgaria.
Many historians are sure that his new wife simply poisoned him. This may indeed be true, given the threat that Attila posed to Europe.
