Anthropologist Sandra Garvie-Lok can't tell exactly how the victim on her table died, but she has a good idea. Given the visible previous cranial trauma on the body, the events that took place around the time of the murder and the location where his remains were found, she is willing to bet that this John Doe was murdered -- almost 1,500 years ago in the ancient Greek city of Nemea during the Slavic invasion of Greece.
