BURIAL MOUNDS (Sayre, Bradford County) Back in the 1880s, a burial mound was discovered near Sayre at a place caled Spanish Hill.  But instead of Indian bodies, W.K. Morehead, Dr. G.P. Donehoo and A.B. Skinner of Philadelphia's American Investigating Museum dug out skeletons.  They were reported to be seven feet tall with 4" horns protruding from their brows. The apparitions of the creatures have also been reportedly seen roaming the area. The bones were supposedly dated back to 1200 AD. They were sent to the Philadephia museum, where according to legend they disappeared.  Some spoilsports claim that the skulls were actually tribal masks and the horns were antlers.
