Archaeologists in Virginia are trying to identify the remains of four Confederate soldiers who were killed in the Civil War. The skeletons were found on the grounds of the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. The museum’s archaeologists were excavating a building from the American Revolution when it discovered the remains. They believe the men died at a field hospital that operated during a Civil War battle in 1862. The soldiers were reinterred this week at a Williamsburg cemetery. The museum’s effort to identify them will continue for several months. It will include trying to find living descendants and matching their DNA to the remains.
