Description

Qui, nel Museo Nazionale della Scozia, puoi vedere un oggetto molto strano: un collare da bara o un collare per i morti. Il collare da bara era un collare di ferro spesso fissato a un pezzo di legno. Veniva fissato attorno al collo di un cadavere e poi avvitato sul fondo di una bara. I rapporti più comuni sull'uso di questi collari provenivano dalla Scozia intorno al 1820. Questi collari erano fatti per ostacolare i tombaroli. I tombaroli erano studenti di anatomia umana. Legalmente, solo i corpi dei criminali giustiziati potevano essere usati per studiare l'anatomia. Ma la domanda era superiore all'offerta.
