I just recently visited the Written in Bone exhibit in D.C and it was captivating. It was so informative and fascinating to see how the colonial lives, how harsh their lives were just by studying their bones. i was really touched by the colonial forensic crime cases that were closed. I highly recommend it.

Its fasinating how they can just examine a skeleton and tell how old it is, its sex, and the cause of its death. This task seems like it would be amazing to witness.
