Popis: International audience; In the autumn 2014, a preventive excavation led by the INRAP archaeologists brought to light the remains of the ancient Saint-Germain church of Flers and its parish burial ground (northwestern France). A sample of 250 graves were excavated. Two of them aroused great interest when they were discovered. Two burial vaults, located in the church choir, held each a lead coffin. A lead heart-shaped container had been laid down on top of one of them, which was a probable sign of an embalming ritual (a practise generally reserved to people of high social status).
