In the annals of time, a chilling revelation unfurled,
As archaeologists delved into an ancient world,
A tomb unearthed from a hundred millennia past,
Revealing a horror that forever will last.
In the heart of the ancient empire’s domain,
Lies a tomb where women faced unbearable pain,
Buried alive as punishment, a fate so dread,
A dark chapter of history, stained in red.
The archaeologists stood in silent dismay,
As they uncovered the remnants of that fateful day,
Bones of women who met a gruesome end,
Their cries echoing through time, a message to send.
A punishment so cruel, so unfathomably grim,
In the depths of the tomb, where light grew dim,
Why were these women condemned to such a fate?
What crimes or beliefs sealed their horrific state?
Their bodies entombed in the earth’s cold embrace,
A testament to a justice devoid of grace,
In the silence of the tomb, their voices unheard,
Their final moments etched in the earth like a word.
The horror of their burial alive,
A truth that archaeologists strive to revive,
To shed light on a past so dark and severe,
Where justice was meted with cruelty austere.
As the artifacts whispered of a civilization gone,
The women in the tomb stood silent, still, and wan,
In death, their story begins to unfold,
Of lives cut short, of stories left untold.
A hundred thousand years have silently crept,
Yet the tomb’s chilling secret has not slept,
A reminder of a time when justice was cruel,
When women faced punishment, a merciless duel.
In the ancient empire’s shadowed reign,
The tomb stands as a mark of unbearable pain,
A haunting discovery that grips the soul,
Of women buried alive, a tale to extol.
May their memory be honored, their voices heard,
In the echoes of time, in history’s word,
As archaeologists uncover the chilling tale,
Of women in the tomb, where justice failed.
