The funerary ritual immersed the skeletal remains in a liquid in a glass funerary urn, preserved since the 1st century AD, surprising researchers with its natural state.
The good conservation conditions of the intact and well-sealed tomb over time ruled out other causes for the preserved liquid, leading to the discovery of the ancient wine.
Chemical analyses at Cordoba University were conducted to confirm the nature of the reddish liquid, which revealed that it was wine, though some of its essential characteristics had been lost.
