SO you think it IS strange--and would you agree that mummification could be an explanation at all?
"I don't get why there was no "body silhouette" at all. Mighty strange. Unless, of course the body was moved after leakage of the fluids formed in the first stages of putrefaction. Or the body had been frozen soon after death (killing off the endogenous bacteria which account for much of the process of putrefaction, particularly in the abdominal area). Both possibilities seem really "out there" though. "
Whoops, I left this part off

Yes, I think it strange. No, I do not think partial mummification (her body was partially mummified) would account for it. Yes, the extremities and skin were mummified, but the organs in the thorax and abdomen were not mummified (and it would be stranger still if they were!) Most of the liquids which would drain out of body come from the abodmen and thorax. So, why no drainage of the fluids, none at all?
