    During my stay up at Kings College hospital last year, I had plenty of reading material, and time to read it. Included was National Geographic magazine, which cover a wide variety of subjects with high quality pictures. Last February had an article on the Sicilian friars, who have mummified bodies for over 500 years, thus leaving (intentionally or otherwise), a unique record of the human body. The crypt has been attacked on occasions, with exhibit`s damaged. Problems at the moment are the enormous amount of visitors, who could have an effect on the air quality which helps preserve them. Local nuns say they should be decently buried, and returned to dust, and that there`s nothing spiritual to learn from this. Is that the only way they can look at it? What say you?
