Bacteria.

This is coolbert:

Here with a response to a comment to the blog by Pat!

NOT germane to the blog but in deference to Pat:

"Pat said... Hi Albert . . . can you let me know where you found this reference to bacteria in Parisian soil ? I am a microbiologist, if this is true this is could be very significant."

From the blog entry on the rebuilding of Paris:

"ONE REASON WHY PARIS WAS BUILT FROM ANCIENT TIMES WHERE IT STANDS IS THAT THE EARTH CONTAINS A BACTERIA THAT EATS FLESH WITH AMAZING RAPIDITY."

This particular tidbit is from so far back when that I cannot remember with certainty the source.

Just that where Paris stands now has been inhabited for over 2,600 years and one reason for the site being chosen as a suitable location for a village, a town, a city, is that the soil was found to have almost magical properties. Some sort of flesh eating bacteria that can consume the body of a corpse within TWO DAYS!

The disposal of the dead in a sanitary manner being of vital importance and being well understood even in ancient times.

When Haussmann had the Great Cemetery of Paris dug up, the SOIL WAS SAVED, PLACED INTO GLASS VIALS! To this day the vials can be purchased, the glass broken and the soil spread inside a casket of the deceased just prior to closing for the last time!! Within two days you know the body will be consumed. Such a practice still exists?

Further I cannot comment on, only that it is so!!
