Just outside of Cardiff, archaeologists have unearthed a cemetery they think is about 1,500 years old.

就在卡迪夫城外，考古学家们发现了一座墓地，他们认为这座墓地大约有1500年的历史。

The graves contain well-preserved skeletons, giving an insight into a medieval community. Worn teeth on some of the bodies, for example, suggest people crafting with leather or textiles, pulling these materials through their front teeth as they worked.

这座墓地中的坟墓里埋有保存完好的骨骼，让人们得以深入了解中世纪的社区群体。例如，一些遗骸上被磨损的牙齿表明人们曾使用皮革或纺织品进行手工制作，并且在工作时用门牙拉扯这些材料。

There have also been some unusual discoveries – shards of glass from France, pottery from North Africa and tiny pegs, possibly for some sort of gaming board. It suggests people were coming to the cemetery to meet up – eating and drinking amidst the graves.

考古学家们也收获了一些不寻常的发现——来自法国的玻璃碎片、来自北非的陶器和可能用于某种游戏板上的游戏钉。这表明当时人们可能是在墓地聚会吃喝。

The team hopes further research and DNA analysis will reveal more about who these people were.

该考古团队希望进一步的研究和 DNA 分析能揭示更多关于埋葬在这里的人的信息。
