Snake Skeleton

Exploring the world through Google Maps can help you discover some weird, wonderful and whacky things - but the spotting of a huge 'snake skeleton' in France has created a buzz like no other.

A 2,400-year-old tomb filled with skeletons - along with other artefacts including earrings and ceramic vessels - has been discovered in Iraq, scientists say. Among the artifacts found in the tomb, researchers found a bracelet decorated with images of two snake heads peering at each other.
