How Do We Become Soil?

Abstract

In this article, instead of examining burial customs or rituals throughout the ages, it is aimed to understand how the human body is transformed back to the soil especially after the seed burial, by examining the human bones collected from the same geographical region of different periods.

It should be noted that the bones we collect for examination are in particular from the South Marmara Region and from different time periods. This study also shows that the duration of the bones in the soil and the secondary occurrences on the bones, especially the density of hydroxyapatite, are directly proportional. This result suggests that it may be possible to determine the period when the bones belong to the same studies carried out on the inner/por surfaces of the bone finds, in other words, perhaps this method could also be used for dating.
