#1 Some time ago, I recall a discovery of a Dark Ages-era cemetery in England. Due to the residents' size--bigger than the average for the time--it was presumed they were upper class.
But were they monks or nobles? That would be determined forensically. Nobles would show evidence of battle wounds, possibly the last one, and various which had healed.
So, let's see if this woman's skeleton shows evidence of actual fighting.
