Local residents knew their families had lived in the region for a long time, but they never imagined their local roots went as deep as they actually do.
Fifteen years ago, archaeologists working in Germany's Harz Mountains discovered human bones in a cave. They were the remains of people who lived three thousand years ago. DNA tests were carried out on the bones and then last year, scientists announced their astonishing results. They've established that two local men are the descendants of these Bronze Age hunters.

In addition, we have an approval number system for each new product that means we inspect about 50% of all producers each year." husband(SAVE)verb[T]FORMAL to use something carefully so that you do not use all of it
