Another problem with the crucifixion - rising from the dead - empty
tomb
yarn:
In Roman crucifixion, the body was left on the cross as a public
warning
to other people, and to punish the condemned person's family by denying
them a body to inter. Bodies would have been left on the cross to be
eaten
by birds and animals.
Sorry, but it's a made up story.

"Despite the fact that the ancient Jewish historian Josephus, as well
as other sources, refer to the crucifixion of thousands of people by
the Romans, there is only one single archeological discovery of a
crucified body, and this crucified body dates back to the Roman Empire
and the time of Jesus. It is not surprising that there is only one
archeological discovery of a crucified body, because a crucified body
was **usually** left to decay on the cross and therefore would not be
preserved. The only reason these archeological remains were preserved
was because family members gave this particular crucified criminal a
customary burial.
The remains were found accidentally in an ossuary with the crucified
man's name on it, 'Yehohanan, the son of Hagakol.'"
**emphasis** added to show that not all bodies were left to decay on
the cross. And, indeed, as written in the Bible, with special
permission from Governor Pilate, Jesus' body was taken down by
Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea for burial in a new garden tomb
belonging to Joseph.
