Actually in modern Germany bodies are only buried for so long. After a period of time, I think it’s ten years or so, the body is dug up and cremated and the plot is reused. They only have so much space.

This has happened in Europe a long time. At least, not keeping bodies permanently. In England some places have long been bringing up bodies and only keeping the skulls for remembrance.

But of course, hippie wants more. Just plain wasting away is her preference - or to be used for fertilizer.
