"Romans as a rule were not buried in coffins to begin with and when they did use coffins, they were mostly wooden. There are only a handful of other examples from Italy of lead coffins from this age—the second, third or fourth century A.D. We know of virtually no others in this region."

Don't open it!

If they want to find out what's in it, why don't they just X-ray it?

Oh, wait. . . . ;^)

If Geraldo Rivera shows up and utters the words “Al Capone”, you know it’s gonna be a bust.

If the Coffin Plate says ‘Pandora’ I would think it would not be wise to open.

The lead coffin archaeologists found in the abandoned ancient city of Gabii, Italy could contain a gladiator or bishop.

Sadly, Ray Milland is no longer with us...

I bet it’s a clown casket. Think of how many clowns they have in that thing and what will happen if they open it!
