That is the link you posted.
It is going via google and allows tracking of everyone who clicks it.

Fuck Google AMP.
So the ancient punishment with being sent to the salt mines: were salt mines that common or was it from this area?
According to the article it wouldn’t have been much of a punishment.
“Thousands of bodies have been excavated, almost all flaunting rich bronze ornaments, typically worn by only the wealthiest,” Reschreiter said. “The remains bore the marks of hard physical labour from childhood, while also showing signs of unequalled prosperity.”
Edit: spelling
That was a necropolis in the same place, because salt preseves. Nothingto do with the salt mining work.
I don’t know the area; I’m NA based, but salt deposits near the surface are pretty rare. Our deepest mines are salt mines.
What about those ?
