“In Hyrcania, the people maintain dogs for the public use; the nobles have their own—and we know that they have a good breed of dogs; but every one, according to his ability, provides himself with some, in order to be eaten by them after death; and they hold that to be the best kind of interment.”

— Marcus Tullius Cicero, Tusculan Disputations
