18 mummies have been on display at the Chiesa dei Morti (Church of the Dead) in Urbania, Italy since 1833. They were created many years earlier by the Brotherhood of the Good Death. Formed in 1567, the order assisted the poor in death by taking care of them in their final moments, financing their burials, and keeping a record of those that died.

The clothed mummy is Vincenzo Piccini, who served as prior of the brotherhood. He still wears the robes and silver death badge of the order.

Samurai’s Guide to Harakiri. The ritual suicide, also called “Harakiri” or “ Seppuku”, was performed in front of an audience, and samurai sliced open their stomach - hence “hara” (stomach) “kiri” (cutting) - with a short blade called a tantou, moving the dagger from right to left. Their intestines would then spill out onto a small tray, and the samurai was then decapitated. In some instances, the samurai was not decapitated and died from blood loss or shock. As this illustration points out, there were different styles of disembowelment: single-line disembowelment (ichimonji-bara), crosswise disembowelment (jumonji-bara), crosswise disembowelment in modified T-shape (henkei jumonji-bara), and vertical disembowelment (nambu-bara). The above Japanese illustration depicts these four types as well as pointing out how the blade should cut into the flesh.
