The Day in Photos – June 30, 2015

Archaeologists work on unearthed skeletons in the Farringdon area of London in this undated handout photograph released March 15, 2013. Archaeologists said on Friday they had found a graveyard during excavations for a rail project in London which might hold the remains of some 50,000 people killed by the “Black Death” plague more than 650 years ago. Scientists said June 30, 2015 that minor genetic changes that the bacterium Yersinia pestis underwent many centuries ago – adding a single gene that subsequently mutated – turned it from mild to murderous. Y. pestis killed an estimated 200 million or more people in the 6th and 14th centuries. (Photo by Reuters/Crossrail)
