A mysterious leaden sarcophagus discovered in the bowels of Paris' Notre-Dame cathedral after it was devastated by a fire will soon be opened and its secrets revealed, French archaeologists said Thursday.
The announcement came just a day before the third anniversary of the inferno that engulfed the 12th century Gothic landmark, which shocked the world and led to a massive reconstruction project.

The world was never shocked, just duped into paying for the arson

I often see the word leaden used in conjunction with sarcophagus.
Is there another type of sarcophagus?
Honest question.

Doesn’t that just mean made with lead? Feel like a sarcophagus could be made of anything really.
ETA:
Assuming they can’t X-ray leaden ones

Forensic experts and scientists will then open the sarcophagus and study its contents, to identify the skeleton's gender and former state of health,
How dare they assume that skeletons gender! We can’t silence skeleton voices!

Yeah but all the wooden ones under a building like that would have rotted out and turned into dirt by now.

Have an upvote, sir.
The person went to the trouble of arranging to be interred in lead. Could not have left a more clear Do Not Disturb sign on final resting place.

The French deserve whatever cataclysm is coming to them.

The Templars must have moved it after Dan Brown revealed the whereabouts in The Da Vinci Code.
