What do you think the human remains look like when they recovered the Hunley? It fascinated me that for 130 years, the submarine Hunley stayed in the bottom of the ocean. In the 1800s, technology was weak thus the sinking of this sub, which was the first to sink a ship in combat. In Discovery, they said that they recovered human remains inside the sub. But out of respect, they have not shown the photos in public. What does it look like? They said the sub was full of sediments preserving most of the artifacts inside, does it mean, the human was preserved too?

Is it legal to own human remains? I am a history buff, and really enjoy collecting old guns and other items from pre-19th century.

Were human remains found in the mid 1980's to 90's in a Southern Perth suburb? Possibly female and before or during the construction of Centenary Avenue area Wilson.

"Apparently" remains may have been found 10 years later in that same area and for her peace of mind was wondering if it could have been the same girl. Hope it was a rumour.
