On Sunday afternoon I biked down to the JMZ platform, met up with Ellen and we took the train out to Williamsburg to meet up with Quinn at North Brooklyn Farms.
"The best-known is "The Crystal Maiden", the skeleton of a teenage girl, possibly a sacrifice victim, whose bones have been calcified to a sparkling, crystallized appearance." You were allowed to bring cameras into here and photograph everything "In late May 2012, a tourist accidentally dropped a camera and fractured a human skull estimated to be over one thousand years old. As a result, all cameras without a permit are banned from the cave"
So, because of that person, all you get to see are pictures of the teak tree farm we had to drive through...
You enter the cave by jumping into very deep water and swimming into the mouth of the cave. Yeah, that's right. It's a river cave! With flashlights mounted to our heads, we hiked, climbed and swam our way over kilometer into the underground complex! This is one of the only archaeological sites in the world where the human remains found inside have not been removed and you can see them as they were discovered. Really wild to be able to walk right up to a old human skeletons lying on a cave floor!
