Natural materials take relatively less time to decompose compared to altered materials or synthetic fibers, with cotton taking around 6 months, wool taking 1 year, and silk taking around 4 years. **Synthetic fibers take a lot longer since they are predominantly made from plastics. Nylon fabric takes 30 to 4o years, whereas lycra and polyester will take predictably more than 500 years to decompose.** -According to [Daniel Wescott](https://www.txst.edu/anthropology/people/faculty-staff/wescott.html), director of the Forensic Anthropology Center at Texas State University, "on average, a body buried within a typical coffin usually starts to break down within a year, but takes up to a decade to fully decompose, leaving only the skeleton". If buried without a coffin, a body "typically skeletonizes within five years", says [Nicholas Passalacqua](https://www.wcu.edu/faculty/nvpassalacqua.aspx), an associate professor at the Forensic Osteology Research Station at Western Carolina University. +According to [Daniel Wescott](https://www.txst.edu/anthropology/people/faculty-staff/wescott.html), director of the Forensic Anthropology Center at Texas State University, "on average,**a body buried within a typical coffin usually starts to break down within a year, but takes up to a decade to fully decompose, leaving only the skeleton".
