You can taste death as well as smell it. Do you have Vicks Vapor Rub or a methol product to put under your nose. It helps get rid of lingering smell. My uncle was a ME (medical examiner, coroner). I have been seeing the dead in all manner of decomp since I was at least 5 years old. Not for the faint of heart. Breathing in that is not good for you my friend. Take Good Care!

One possibility is that they're considered a candidate for sainthood. Apparently one of the "miraculous" signs of sainthood accepted by the Roman Catholic Church (and also Eastern Orthodox sects) are mortal remains that are "incorrupt", or in a remarkable state of preservation without embalming.

0:21 bless you, lol The open crypt around 19 minutes in had water in it, likely the breeding ground for the mosquitos. The scent of death is caused by two sulphur based compounds, cadaverine, and putrescine. I've found that the scent of coffee (another sulphur based cent) is a good smell to clear bad smells out of the sinuses. Burt's bees lip balm with menthol to the upper lip is another good way to get a bad scent out of the sinuses.

@nevillegoddard4966 3 ай бұрын

@@WitchyBlueMoonlight I'm taking a guess here. Maybe the highly concentrated stink, which is held within each coffin, slowly exits through small openings & cracks that develop over time. Maybe it permeates the inner walls of each mauseleum. I guess it may take a century or more for this process to complete. Maybe some coffins aren't sealed as well as others. With so many remains in the one area, the sum total of a tiny smell from each just adds up. I also heard somewhere that the human nose is very sensitive to even low levels of this putriscene & cadaverine. That's my guess anyway.

There's a local mausoleum near me that I like to visit. It's very modern. long halls with electric lighting, carpet, lots of places to sit. I've found a small area that will just reek of death now and then. The staff do what they can to try to keep it from happening but ...well...the walls are literally full of dead bodies. I guess places like this will smell at times. Strange with such seemingly old interments, though. You'd think the purification for many of them would be long gone. Maybe not all of them are so old.

The glass coffins seen often in Naples cemeteries were often used in combination with different preservation methods, such as mummification. The mummification process involved treating the body with chemicals and wrapping it in fabric to prevent decay. The glass coffin provided an additional layer of protection, helping to maintain the body’s appearance and prevent it from decomposing. Maybe they found wood coffins problematic for some mausoleums? The people in the area believed it slowed decay. Maybe if a person was a priest, a local politician of importance - maybe that too is why they were encased in a glass-sided coffin.

Hard to say, but still, it remains to be seen. (sorry, couldn't resist that joke. But I'm a very morbid person anyway.) Jokes aside, that really IS a beautiful cemetery. Maybe it's because my father died when I was still a baby, but I've always had a fascination with graveyards and cemeteries. Especially those with "raised" headstones. I think it made those who raised me kinda worried, but it's not like I ever did anything evil, or even disrespectful..... I just feel peaceful in those places.

I will never get used to having lights in a graveyard or mausoleum. They are just too inappropriate for such use. But you see it more and more often. I have never been in a place with so many burials and interments! I can smell the death smell you speak of, and I am glad for you, that it isn't the smell of burnt bodies.

10:03 coffins like that makes me think that the family couldn’t fully accept the death of their loved one just yet that’s why they put them in a glass coffin so they could still see them. Cause I noticed most of them are children. You could never fully accept the death of a child let alone your own child. I’m saying this because there was this other glass coffin that I saw in a KZbin video and in it was a little girl who died of a disease I guess. It’s so sad the fact that you could see them decomposing.

Earlier, in the 1850s, glass windows were used to detect breath condensation in case someone was buried alive. So it all long predates the popular Disney film of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves was released in 1937. The original story of Snow White was written by the Brothers Grimm, December 20, 1812. In that story, she was placed in glass coffin. The idea of glass coffins have been for at least over 200 years. Glass coffins are rarely used today.

The linked hands represent spouses. Most often found when one spouse departed before the other. This represents their love reaching across the boundary of death. There are Victorian variations of the same symbol. I have also seen one set of graves where one spouse was Catholic and one Protestant. Since the Protestant spouse could not be buried in a Catholic cemetary (consecrated ground), they were buried on the boundary of the cemetary. The hands reached across the boundary of the Catholic cemetary to the Protestant spouse in unconsecrated ground.

Das ist ja ein ganzes Dorf als Friedhof mit Häusern, hier in Deutschland gibt es zwar auch Mausoleum aber die meisten werden Erdbestattung machen. Oder neuerdings sehr viele Feuerbestattungen da geht hier der Trent zu hin. Auch sehr beliebt sind Wälder wo unter Bäumen bestattet wird.

Very interesting Dan. Hopefully no one offers you a choice you can't refuse. 😅 Be careful 😊 Also then I enjoyed the artificial turf in front of the Tomb.😅

Wow, xem rất là sợ, nhưng rất thích vì nó bí hiểm và lôi cuốn.

Wow, what a great huge cemetery. The glass coffin is so awesome, too bad I`ll never get to travel there. Thanks for uploading!

I wish the camera would linger longer so we can see in more detail inside the mausoleum(s). It's too fast and if one blinks, you missed it. 😕

The monuments are stunning but it's got be the most claustrophobic place I've ever seen

I wonder why some of the mausoleums are so well-kept, but others are in ruins. Is the upkeep the families' responsibility or the city's? And can you imagine how BEYOND spooky this place must be at night??

The family usually keeps it clean but then they all die
