The Hebrew burial custom was to wash the body and to wrap it in cloth. Unguents and perfume were applied if they could be afforded and the body was placed in usually a cave, natural or man made, and there the body would disintegrate in time. Then after a much longer time period the bones would be gathered up and put into a small box. This was to make room for another body to be buried.
