Description
A British-led archaeological dig has uncovered new human bones, including what appears to be a complete skeleton, at the site of the Battle of Waterloo in Belgium. Historians estimate that more than 20,000 soldiers were killed in the battle on June 18, 1815 when mainly Anglo-Dutch allied troops commanded by the Duke of Wellington defeated French battalions led by Napoleon Bonaparte.
