Question

Are there really Cadavers under the Great Wall of China?

Answer 1

No. That's just a story.

Answer 2

No, there are no bodies buried in or under the Great Wall. It's another myth similar to 'you can see the wall from the moon.'

The buried in the wall thing is a myth, and was perpetuated in part because the people at the time hated the reigning first emperor (Qin s**+ Huang) who forced hundreds of thousands to work on the wall.

In reality, if you bury a body in a wall, the body will decompose, leaving a huge gaping hole and weakening the entire structure. The dead were buried around the wall, not in or under the wall.

Answer 3

Pssst...

Don't say I say one....

There are cadavers everywhere...

all you have to do is DIG...

Japanese Occupation...

German Invasion...

Rape of Nanking... they were everywhere above ground and under ground

History is full of cadavers...

Of course they were forced labor,

no such luxury as a 7 day funeral wake,

chuck into the nearest depression and fill her up!

Answer 4

no cadavers, but workers who died during the building process were thrown in there.
