Naturellement embaumé par la tourbière, le corps momifié de l'Homme de Clonycavan se compose essentiellement d’un buste, de bras et de la tête. Bien que partiellement abîmé par le tracteur qui l'a découvert(les bras ont été à demi sectionnés), le corps est dans un état remarquable. [...] Une datation au carbone 14 indique que le corps aurait été jeté dans la tourbière entre 392 et 201 av. J.-C. [...] Ses cheveux auraient été couverts d’un gel capillaire à base de résine de pin et d’huile végétale, pour être dressés en forme de crête iroquoise. [...] Qui plus est, il semblerait que le gel capillaire employé n’ ait pu être confectionné en Irlande : il s’agirait donc d’un produit importé provenant d’Espagne ou de France. 2, record 1, French, - Homme%20de%20Clonycavan

Dans des conditions naturelles, un être vivant va subir, après sa mort, un processus de décomposition bien établi. [...] Ce processus de décomposition est parfois enrayé par des conditions extrêmes de température, de composition du sol ou d’hygrométrie (taux d’humidité dans l’air). Dans ces rares cas, le corps peut être partiellement ou complètement conservé, c’est la momification naturelle. [...] ces momies sont le résultat de circonstances environnementales particulières comme le froid extrême, l’acidité ou la salinité du sol, une sécheresse [...] 1, record 3, French, - momification%20naturelle
