Police forensics units were called in several weeks ago to identify a skull and skeletal remains found adjacent to Dor Beach, on Israel's northern Mediterranean coast.
As it turns out, if the remains belonged to a victim of a crime, it occurred about 3,000 years ago. "The findings indicate that the skeletal remains are from the Bronze Age (3,000 years ago), from the Phoenician period. The material and the findings will be turned over to the Antiquities Authority," the police statement said.
