A new Mishna teaches that if a corpse is found on its own, it can be dislodged along with at least three fingerbreadths of earth surrounding it and reburied elsewhere. If two bodies are found, the same halacha applied. If three bodies are found near each other in rows, though, the site is assumed to be a ceremony and the builders must search for other bodies within a 20 cubit radius.
We explore the ramifications of exhumation especially in the case of Treblinka and Jedwabne (Lomze county) Poland.
