Who were the inventors of the coffin and how were they laid to rest?

Question

I just read that the inventor of the Pringles Can was burried in his invention so now I'm a bit curious.

Answer 1

that wouls probably be the Egyptians- the sacrophagus of a pharaoh can be considered a coffin (they used several)

Answer 2

Ralph and Herminie Carton invented the coffin in 1703, but were both burried in cigar boxes due to a lack of wood. Their remains were later dug up and interned in marble in Canton Ohio.

Answer 3

The people who invented the coffin were buried in one. Simple, really.

Yes it's true about the inventor of Pringles. I wonder, if it's discovered in later years and potentially opened by curious anthropologists, whether they will be thinking of the slogan "I bet you can't eat just one".
