Abstract
We present this interesting note on the petrification of corpses, published in 1890 in the Italian Journal of Natural Sciences. After a brief review of the oldest forms of embalming, the author, Michele Martone, presents petrification as the only way to obtain the perfect conservation of the corpse. CONCLUSION: This scientific note presents some considerations regarding the constant search of humanity to arrest, if not the death of a person, the decomposition of their body.
