Lovers bones found embracing

ROME -- An embrace that has lasted some 5,000 years will go on, if archaeologists are successful.
The bones of a couple are being gently scooped out of the earth on the outskirts of Mantua, Italy.
The pair are believed to be a man and a woman who died young. Archaeologists have hailed the find, saying that double burials from that period are rare and none have been found in such a touching pose.
The burial was unearthed during construction work. The site is 25 miles south of Verona, the setting for Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," and the discovery has fueled media speculation about prehistoric love.
