 Diver discovers 7,000-year-old Native American burial site in the Gulf of Mexico

A DIVER who discovered human remains in the Gulf of Mexico paved the way for experts to uncover a “unique” 7,000-year-old burial site.

Archaeologists were called to the site after a recreational diver spotted human bones near Venice, Florida.

It appears to have been preserved from the corroding effects of sand and salt by being laid in what was once a freshwater peat pond.
