Ah ha, I should have known to ask you. Silly me. :)
By "decompose," I mean ... the fleshy bits gone, or at least mostly gone. The burial ... probably not a modern coffin, but a coffin a couple of centuries ago, I guess. I'm still not really clear on what time period it was, tbh. Somewhere in Europe, so not too tropical.
Would clothes/paper/perishable non-fleshy things survive?
