The Tollund Man and bog bodies

Are the bog bodies buried in bogs for similar reasons what made Ancient Egyptians mummified their bodies? Who wanted those bog bodies to conserve forever? And how were those bodies selected? 

One of the most interesting parts of history is so-called bog bodies. The most well-known of those bodies is the Tollund Man, whose story is below this text. The question is, why are those bodies buried in the bogs? Bogs are conserving the bodies, and that means the ritual, where the body buried in the bog can compile with the Ancient Egyptians way to mummify their bodies. So has bury ritual to bog the same purpose as a mummifying ritual of Ancient Egypt?

In ancient Egypt, the mummifying ritual is reserved for the respected members of society. And the same way we might conclude that the bog bodies were somehow want to conserve for the next generations.  Who were those people? People should know in that time that bogs conserve bodies. So why those bodies wanted to remain so a long time?

The remarkable thing is that the young girl who was buried in the cave with two finches in Poland around the year 1650 was the family member of one person, who was buried in the bog grave in Levaluhta, Isokyro, Finland. So that means those bodies have some kind of connection. I have written about that girl in Finnish. and the link to that text is below this text. The question is why the special treatment, where the body put in the cave head of the twink in the mouth and other at her side allowed in 1650? What was so special about that girl that those special ceremonies accepted?

But the fact is that the interesting thing is what made the people bury those bodies in the bog? That thing can find out by analyzing the DNA of those bodies. The DNA can tell is there some detail like a genetic anomaly, what made people conserve those bodies? Are they selected from a certain family? Have those people some common details in the genomes.  

When we are seeing the Tollund Man, that man seems sleeping. He was not afraid of death, what might come suddenly. So if he hung, that expression tells about the restless attitude for that thing. Or that person died before the ceremony, and then the body was hang. Did he go to hang for somebody else? He seems like a man, who is done everything and accepts the faith. The remarkable thing is that the man has expensive clothes. The mystery of bog bodies remains, and maybe artificial intelligence along with DNA samples can open the secret. Why did those bodies want to conserve?

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.  An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate.  AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru
