TGIF! Time for another round of Funeral Fact Friday:

The Bo people, a community who lived in China's Sichuan and Yunnan regions, overlooking the longest river in Asia, were referred to "sons of the cliffs." The tribe vanished, but it left behind the Hanging Coffins of Asia. There is no confirmed explanation for these cliffside burials, but theorists believe they could have been a way for the bodies to be nearer to God or avoid being broken apart by wild animals.

What do you know about the hanging coffins of China and the mysterious Bo People? How did they make the hanging coffins, and how did they suspend them from the mountainside? And why the high burials?
