200 m off the East Sea in Gyeongju, South Korea, the tomb of King Munmu (626–681 CE) of Silla is the world’s first submerged grave. Made of unpolished stones, it has 4 channels in 4 directions; water flowing east to west keeps the level of water inside the tomb constant [2000×2890]

      How did they…ever manage that? Also hats off to the kingdom of Silla, they seemed to be very creative in terms of buildings and construction out of the three kingdoms in the same period.

      ok but even if you dug a hole in the water and then dumped the ashes into it the ashes would just float away so why did he need a tomb anyway

      bruh just dump the ashes in the water at the beach
