From the June 17, 2013, Yahoo! News. The Lookout "Ontario couple finds 400-year-old skeleton, gets $5,000 bill" by William Holt.
Ken Campbell of Sarnia, Ontario, was digging post holes in his backyard when he came across some bones. His wife Nicole Sauve encouraged him to unearth the rest and they called police who cordoned off the area.
Forensic anthropologist Michael Spence examined the site and said that the skeleton was that of a 24-year-old Indian woman who died in the late 1500s or early 1600s.
Spence then contacted the Registrar of Cemeteries who told the couple they had to hire an archaeologist to examine the rest of their backyard at their cost.
Thanks a Lot, Wifey. --Cooter
