Scary !!!
This scary bones are belong to a chapel where is located near Prag...I've
received this
pictures from a friend of mine...I was shocked and didnt want
to believe what I had just seen, decided to ask about those real skull bones to my ex-classmate Premo who is from Czech Republic...
After he has done a quick search for me (thanks to his parents as well) he sent me this web-site
Here's a short summary about these scary bones:
''In 1278 King Otakar II of Bohemia sent Henry, the abbot of Sedlec , on a diplomatic mission to the Holy Land. When leaving Jerusalem Henry took with him a handful of earth from Golgotha which he sprinkled over the cemetery of Sedlec monastery, consequently the cemetery became famous, not only in Bohemia but also throughout Central Europe and
many wealthy people desired to be buried here.The burial ground was enlarged during the epidemics of plague in the 14 th century (e.g.in 1318 about 30 000 people were buried here) and also during the Hussite wars in first quarter of the 15 th. century.''
What I know is this, I would never want to be there as a visitor or as a permanent bone..
huh!
