==Revenant graves== Archaeologists have found revenant graves throughout Europe, characterized by bodies that had precautions taken to prevent them from rising up and causing mischief for the living, such as stones placed over the legs, stones placed in the jaw so it could not speak, bodies lodged with bricks, or body parts removed. The oldest known graves are as old as 4,000 years BP from the Bronze Age. Roman literature contained writings about revenants, they were common throughout the Middle Ages, and 17th century Poland was reportedly a hot-bed of revenant superstition.<ref>{{cite web |last=Rascius |first=Brendan |title='Zombie' grave β dating back 4,200 years β discovered in Germany, photos show |work=[[Miami Herald]] |date=April 18, 2024 |access-date=2024-04-19 |url=https://www.yahoo.com/news/zombie-grave-dating-back-4-212227585.html}}</ref>
