Around March 15, 2013, a project in London England was being ensued to "improve the transport links" for the capital area. This was a £15bn project where everything became lost in the balance when construction workers found 12 human skeletons sitting 8 feet below ground. From historical records, it was later understood that in 1348, a graveyard had been opened in that location.
Within the record, there was a possibility shown which indicated that up to 50,000 human remains have been placed there in a time span of 3 years or less. The way in which these remains were laid out, in two separate roads, archeologists came to a revelation reminding them that at the Smithfield site, which was hit by the 'Black Death' was formatted in the same way. With some of the skeletons, different pieces of pottery were buried along side. This evidence points to the possibility that these skeletons were buried in the 14th century burial ground when the terrible plague swept the nation.
Because of this plague, around 1.5 million British citizens were lost as well as 25 million who became entangled in Europe. It was thought that this plague originated in Asia around 1346 and moved across its land into Europe around 1348-1350.
Since the initial discovery, it is said that 300+ skeletons have been found.
