“they inhale saltwater that contains small marine micro-organisms called diatoms, which means they suffocate and then drown. These diatoms travel through the blood stream and are deposited and preserved within the bone marrow of larger bones.”
That makes no sense! Once someone drowns their heart stops which means all circulation stops with in minutes. Hardly enough time to circulate blood to the bone marrow.

Seems like a huge funeral fire would have been a whole lot easier than digging a huge grave.

Especially since there were no backhoes or dozers available from the rental centers at that time.

Where have they found “Mass graves with up to 60,000 bodies”?

Oh no, I thought tsunamis were caused by climate change...I mean everything else is blamed on it...😋

The picture from “CCO Public Domain” is from a large single wave, like found during surfing competitions where waves repeat every minute, or so.. The movies of the recent tsunami in Japan indicated a much more slowly rising water level that an aware person could outrun if he had his wits about him, and had a place on higher ground to go to.

Until I saw your name, I considered the article might try to claim that the mass graves were a causal effect of tsunamis.

I guess any event that causes a lot of deaths in a short time would result in such graves...why not the occasional tsunami too?
