Saponified remains, including children's, found in Iberian convent; first such cases in region

Archaeological investigation at a convent in the Iberian Peninsula has uncovered saponified human remains, including those of children and a chaplain, marking the first documented cases of this preservation phenomenon in the region. Only three other similar cases are known globally, in Argentina, Chile, and Italy. The find is significant for forensic science and historical understanding of burial practices, though the specific convent and context remain unspecified.
