AbstractThis report documents a case history in which a cadaver and the associated burial objects were found to be well preserved after being buried for more than 2100 years in Southern China. The preservation is attributed to a layer of kaolin, 0.6 to 3 m thick, that surrounded the coffin system and served as a barrier to water and air movement. The implications for the disposal of nuclear fuel waste are discussed. | This report documents a case history in which a cadaver and associated burial objects were well preserved after being buried for more than 2100 years in Southern China.
