After death

Many cultures and religions have a concept of an afterlife. There are also different customs for honoring the lifeless body, such as a funeral, cremation, or sky burial.

The stages that follow after death are:

Pallor mortis, paleness which happens in 15–120 minutes after death

Livor mortis, a settling of the blood in the lower (dependent) portion of the body

Algor mortis, the reduction in body temperature following death. This is generally a steady decline until matching ambient temperature

Rigor mortis, the limbs of the corpse become stiff (Latin rigor) and difficult to move or manipulate

Putrefaction, the beginning signs of decomposition

Decomposition, the reduction into simpler forms of matter, accompanied by a strong, unpleasant odor.

Skeletonization, the end of decomposition, where all soft tissues have decomposed, leaving only the skeleton.

Fossilization, the natural preservation of the skeletal remains formed over a very long period
