It also may have been that she was much loved and therefore buried by someone in this costly manner. People still do that today, digging deep in their pockets to lay a loved one to rest in a way that others might say "cost too much." Perhaps a young wife who died from TB?

We don't know that there wasn't a burial ground there. It was only by virtue of the unusual lead-lining of her coffin that her remains had not thoroughly decomposed in the nearly 2000 years since she died.

Buried in a lead casket....plague perhaps ? Back then rich people did this. If not a plague lady, someone cared for her a lot to have her buried as such.
Remember, that tiny wife of one of the princes in the tower was found like that, too. Anne Mowbray or so. The worker which found her in East End's soil thought they found a mummy. These lead things were complete normal in times back then among the riches.
The manner in which this woman's body was prepared is consistent with those used in high-status Roman burials in the later Christian period. The most interesting question here is why she was buried in a field rather than a crypt or a columbarium, as such burials usually were. I think she was buried in some such place at death (or perhaps her relics were displayed as those of a saint) and she was buried in the field at a later date, perhaps to hide her during the Reformation.
Because she died a hundred years before the Roman Empire adopted Christianity, therefore not a Christian burial and, therefore, buried wherever the family chose to inter her.
@@petermolloy6142 The Roman Empire officially adopted Christianity in 300 AD (about the same time as this woman was buried, or a bit before) and pre-Christian funerall practices were not much different from Christian ones, aside from the fact that burial became more popular than cremation.
I guess I'd like to know the body was returned to some resting place? This was a human being, who believed in an afterlife. I'd want my bones returned to some place and not tossed away or on display.
@Daruki Neo The body housed the soul and should not be treated as an object. Respect for the dead means your life on earth was more than just existing in a bag o' meat....
Our world is screwed, as you can tell from the idiocy posted attacking the researchers for doing their jobs. It is as if some managed to go through their school years without a clue. SAD!
Nothing useful or practical comes from such "research." Just satisfaction of morbid curiosity and propagation of the idea that humans are just animals undeserving of the dignity of a final resting place.

J Kincaid but why lead coffins I think it's more than status as Royal and thier decsendants are the only ones allowed to be buried this way as well as a higher purpose which points to what the Royal is.... And that's the real question Why lead coffins
The film said the burial took place in the 3rd century AD Lead had been used since early Roman times for various uses including to cap wine amphora and some people thought that the resulting use of wine tainted by lead gave people lead poisoning leading to dementia and death and possibly contributed to the downfall of the Roman Empire. A bit far fetched but at least we know that lead was available and widely mined and used since early times. If the dating is correct the woman's death would have occurred sometime in the early days of the formation of the Holy Roman Empire which leads me to suspect that the girl may have been from a Roman family rather than a family native to the area, because the burial was Roman or Christian if you will , rather than a pagan burial and the only people with extensive wealth in that area would have Roman ties either military or mercantile. Though the Roman Empire was on the wane I believe that it still had control of the southern part of England at the time.l
And now she will lie forever more on a shelf in a museum wrapped in tissue paper next to an Egyptian artefact or a squashed flower that Banks found. 🇦🇺👍
The lead is covered in a corrosion layer, and being a heavy element it is unlikely to create an aerosol, there is plenty of evidence from bullets and bullet fragments that even if you have a sizeable chunk of lead in you this doesn’t result in high plasma lead levels because the body encloses it in a ‘granulation’ layer (proteins and suchlike) to isolate you from the ‘foreign body’. People who get lead poisoning usually get it from drinking mildly acid water or cider or suchlike which has lead dissolved in it.

Well, personally I wouldn't care if they put me back or not. That's just the remains of one of the bodies I've used, no different than finding a suit that I've worn. I would like them to know who I was, however. I plan on making a lead nameplate to that end to be placed with my body.
How long does someone have to be dead before their grave becomes an archeological site? I certainly hope these bones were returned to the earth and not locked away in a cupboard somewhere.
This was fascinating. I dig stuff like this. It's history. I'm sure the ancestor doesn't mind us looking at her bones. She doesn't need them anymore, she's probably flying by now.
Why must These people disturb the dead? It is disgusting ...profane. This poor woman..and all of the graves in Egypt that have been defiled and their. Remains put in museums. And all of their burial goods and treasures taken from them...aaahhhhh
Ok so after testing and all that do they lay these people back to rest? I know she's been gone for a really long time but still we all deserve to stay in the resting place we chose for ourselves in life and also even if she didnt choose the spot who's to say that more than the 6 meters away that they dug out or even deeper are all her family members and i myself would like to stay with my loved ones even after death!! Just sayin'!
i agree with you but the problem is she is in a farmers field and he is using a tractor and digging it constantly to place crops so it has to be moved.
When old human remains were found near the boundry wall of our Church during repairs, we reburied them with all the trimmings, all the readings etc. From the position where they were found, they were originally paupers graves, so they will have had a better burial the second time.
How about returning the remains to the original burial site after your analysis. It would be Sacrilegious for these remnants of a human soul to be filed away on a shelf in a basement!
