The victims, all men except one, were executed between July and October 1936 by forces loyal to the military uprising that sparked the Spanish Civil War and the dictatorship of Francisco Franco. All 129 were civilians. The youngest was 16, the oldest 70. When unearthed, they were just skeletons, some still attached to the rubber soles of their shoes. A few buttons and belt buckles remained, bullet fragments too. Until 2000, 25 years after Franco died and Spain began its transition to democracy, investigating the mass graves littering the countryside was taboo. And even now many Spaniards prefer not to revisit the past. The 37-year-long dictatorship cemented a fear and silence into Spanish culture that has proven hard to break. To date, none of Spain's democratic governments has assumed responsibility for locating and identifying the more than 120,000 noncombatants lying in roadside ditches and other unmarked tombs. --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/capqlobxdyjyruc69brcws4cmt0tzakkktyhp1y9pfz0xuu5...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
