The Angel Skeleton (aka the Springfield Angel)[1] was a supposed skeleton of an angel that was excavated by Lisa at Sabertooth Meadow, the soon-to-be site of a new mega mall.
History
Upon its discovery, the skeleton created a scandal in the town, and sparked age-old debates of science vs. religion.
The skeleton was later revealed to be a hoax and publicity stunt to advertise the opening of the aptly named Heavenly Hills Mall.[2]
The skeleton was apparently stolen by the Springfield Mafia and used in the wall that temporally divided the town.[3]
Behind the Laughter
A scene explaining the contents of the skeleton, which included plaster, among other things, was not used in the finalized episode.[4]
