I mean, if one just dies on the ground, the bugs and animals and smaller organisms will consume it. But if it’s isolated in a coffin, does it just, mummify?
It would mummify if there was some way for the moisture to leave, but if it is sealed enough to prevent insects from getting in then probably water can’t get out. So instead the body sort of puddles into a thick black soup as it is decaying by anaerobic bacteria.
