I'd read about this yesterday and they'd had a news report last night but neither of those had included the information about why they'd been looking in that spot for the remains or that there had at one time been a church on that site. Seems like that would have been helpful background information to include so was glad to see that in the link you provided.

This is big news over here currently. I can just imagine some developer buying up the land, digging, unearthing some old bones and thinking "Guess I ought to call someone"... then facepalm when realising the historical significance and any hopes of building anything in the future dissapearing in a crowd of bearded excitable scientific types....

I'm telling you right now, if I lived overseas on land that has such a rich history, I would be digging up my yard. The possibility of running into history is huge. At least I believe it is.
