unreferenced date February 2010 Signs of death In forensic s, skeletonization refers to the complete decomposition of the non bony Tissue biology tissues of a corpse , leading to a bare skeleton . In a temperate climate , it usually requires three weeks to several years for a body to completely decompose into a skeleton, depending on factors such as temperature, presence of insects, and submergence in a substrate such as water. In the tropics, skeletonization can occur in weeks, while in tundra areas, skeletonization will never occur if subzero temperatures persist. Natural embalming processes in peat bog s or salt desert s can delay the process indefinitely, sometimes resulting in natural mummy natural mummies . The rate of skeletonization and the present condition of the corpse can be used to determine the time of death. After skeletonization has occurred, if scavenging animals do not destroy the bones, the skeleton of mid to large size mammals such as humans takes about twenty years to be completely dissolved by the acids in many fertile soil s, leaving no trace of the organism. In neutral pH soil or sand, the skeleton will persist for at least several thousand years before it finally disintegrates. Infrequently, however, the skeleton can undergo fossil ization, leaving an impression of the bone that can persist for millions of years. Once being fossilized the skeleton can be subject to defossilization the process of a fossil subverting back into regular bone . This can take from 5000 to 500 million years.

In the 1990s several commercial and freeware tools both hardware and software were created to allow investigations to take place without modifying media.
