I have no idea where this image is from and as a result can supply no further information, but it's too good not to be shared here - the skeleton of a Saxon woman in her grave with an electricity cable bored straight through her!

It does, doesn't it? These mini-boring machines have been widely used in the UK over the last couple of decades to put cable TV and internet into villages, many of which have histories stretching back to pre-Norman times and even pre-Roman - some types can, apparently, bore through rocks, so they may have been through millions of artifacts!
Wow, they were advanced! Too bad we can't say the same.
