Corpses

Lady Dai - Changsha, China
The body of Xin Zhui (or Lady Dai), the wife of a Han Dynasty chancellor, was found in Changsha, China. It was so well preserved that scientists were able to carry out an autopsy, while blood remained in her veins. Her corpse is on display at the Hunan Provincial Museum.
