HISTORY BEHIND 6 FEET DIGGING FOR BURRIER
A grave is where a body is laid to rest, marked by a stone with the name and date of death of the deceased. But have you ever wondered why graves are dug six feet below the surface?
According to feldmanmortuary.com, in an ancient practice of burying dead people six feet underground may have helped mask the odor of decay from predators. Similarly, random disturbances, such as plowing, would be unable to reach a person buried six feet underneath. Preventing the spread of disease was another major reason.
Verywellhealth also says, people may have also buried bodies 6 feet deep to help prevent theft. There was also concern that animals might disturb graves. Burying a body 6 feet deep may have been a way to stop animals from smelling the decomposing bodies. A body buried 6 feet deep would also be safe from accidental disturbances.
