Manila, Philippines - Human skeletons, including six skulls, were unearthed by workers at a construction site in Port Area, Manila yesterday morning.

Senior Police Officer 3 Benny Cabatbat said the workers were digging up a foundation beside the Bureau of Quarantine building when they discovered several human skeletons, which they placed in sacks and brought to the St. Ivan funeral parlor for safekeeping.

Cabatbat said the skeletons will be subjected to tests to determine their identities and how long they have been buried there.
