So the tomb was hidden in the bushes for about 4500 years. Interesting...

"Time and tide wait for no man" except maybe Nello! I find this very interesting as the bones in Okinawan tombs are the consistency of corn meal in three hundred years - this person was buried for 4500 years and obviously the salt water preserved the bones.

So some guy took some lady off the beach and into the bushes for a little nookie and lo-and-behold found a tomb.

Seriously, though, pretty fascinating stuff.
