The uniformly made, miniature coffins found in a cave at Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh, Scotland, were believed to be placed there over several years rather than all at once due to the difference in decomposition, which led to various theories about their significance. It is possible that they were created in memory of loved ones who died abroad and were unable to receive a traditional burial.
