Experts Baffled by Mysterious Underground Chambers in Bavaria

Hi all,

_http://www.spiegel.de/international/zeitgeist/0,1518,775348,00.html

One sometimes wonders what experts actually do apart from being constantly baffled by mysteries :halo: but here's a bafflement that was completely new to me, called the 'Erdstall Tunnels'.

There are more than 700 curious tunnel networks in Bavaria, but their purpose remains a mystery. Were they built as graves for the souls of the dead, as ritual spaces or as hideaways from marauding bandits? Archeologists are now exploring the subterranean vaults to unravel their secrets... The ground beneath the southern German state of Bavaria is literally perforated with these underground mazes -- and no one knows why.

Maybe a nice little filler for SOTT?
 
not sure how much truth in it. interesting
