The wife may have volunteered to bury her husband in a tomb in Ukraine 3,000 years ago because she did not want to leave the person she loved most.

The couple's 3,000-year-old remains died in a tight embrace found near Petrykiv village in the southern city of Ternopil, Ukraine, Mirror on July 12 reported. Professor Mykola Bandrivsky conducts research on the burial of mistresses of Wysocko culture.

"This is a unique way of burial, the man and woman lay there, hugging each other tightly. The two faces are close together, their foreheads touching each other. The woman lies on her back, her right hand gently wraps around her men, wrists on the partner's right shoulder, the woman's legs are slightly folded, pressing on the man's stretched legs, both of them are covered with bronze ornaments, near their heads a few pottery includes a bowl, a jar and three bailers, "said Bandrivsky.

Wysocko culture is famous for its delicate burial, according to Professor Bandrivsky, branch director at the Ukrainian Institute of Archeology. But this example is remarkable. In the other tombs, the man often holds the woman's hand, the lips touch the partner's forehead or the dead person embraces each other tightly.

"In our opinion, this woman volunteered to bury her. Maybe she doesn't want to live with another man. She wants to die with her husband. We think this decision is her will. and she wants to be with the person she loves, for example, she may have taken poison to go away easily and without pain , " Professor Bandrovsky speculated.

Marriage is clearly established in the Vysotskaya culture, in which the husband and wife have specific responsibilities."Residents at the end of the Bronze Age believed in the eternal existence of the soul. In many other places in Europe, men and women died buried in pairs placed side by side. But in culture Vysotskaya, private So the couple is set to show the greatest gentleness and love for each other, " said Bandrovsky.
