Only one lung of Queen Arnegund survived from decomposition for approximately 1400 years, despite the rest of her body having vanished and turned into bones. This remarkable preservation was due to unusual embalming methods. Discovered in 1959 inside a royal tomb in Paris, scientists found a piece of soft tissue cloth that retained its features despite the centuries that had passed. Studies were conducted to understand why it remained intact. It was revealed that the embalming process involved chemical and plant-based materials, as well as a reaction with a copper belt buried with her, which helped slow decay through chemical interactions with copper. Research suggests that the nature of the lung tissue itself contributed to its resistance to decomposition, and the chemical reactions between the materials and embalming components resulted in the exceptional preservation of the lung. This sheds light on advanced burial techniques used in the early Middle Ages.
