2000-year-old roman face cream with (visible) ancient fingermarks is discovered during excavations by pre-construct archaeology of a roman temple precinct on tabard street, Southwark in 2007- note, add better place names later –the cream is made of mostly animal fats, mixed with starch and tin oxide (most likely residue from the packaging). The excavators are able to take a clear fingerprint sample from the cream and then (obviously for scientific purposes only) enter them into a police database.
---13 years later---
A murder, back alley near PW street Clawton. The only evidence left on the body is a handprint – a single handprint, a handprint with '2000-year-old fingers'. One of the fingerprints on the body matches that of the roman fingerprints that were uploaded to the database 13 years ago.
Suddenly, police begin to find more bodies, bodies in random places: in dustbins; back alleys; streams and rivers. The only thing that connects them is hand or finger prints – roman fingerprints.
Is this just a hoax? Or a 2000-year-old serial killer...
