Sarcophagus, Coffin. The term sarcophagus is derived from the Greek (lit. 'flesh-eater') to refer to the coffin in which the mummy was placed with the intention of protecting it.he mummy was often buried in more than one coffin, the outermost usually being rectangular and, certainly from the New Kingdom on, the innermost anthropoid. Famous examples are those of Tutankhamun, who was buried in a set of three nesting anthropoid coffins placed into a rectangular sarcophagus.
But the exact decomposing time differs. Generally, it could take about a year for the body to decompose into a skeleton in ordinary soil and eight to twelve years to decompose a skeleton. And if a dead body is inside a coffin and buried deep underground, it could even take 50 years to decompose all tissues on the body. Normally, substantial decomposition mostly occurs in the course of two weeks, and the bodyâs soft tissues start disintegrating even with preservation.
