Well u watch the movies..
And cadavers are like the easiest thing to get..
Oh, magic spell ? dig up dead guy.. just bring shovel..
Digging holes is only hard around suburban/urban housing, because they gravel the dirt..
You go out of that environment.. Digging holes is easy..

This confirms you dont dig many holes, i have dug holes in a varielty of places not urban/suburban and i can confirm it can be hard as ****. Then again its probebly just the **** environment of Australia that causes such terrible ground to dig. You probebly have pansey soil over there. Not tought manly soil like here.

Are you using the right shovel ?
I've seen n00bs dig with a snow shovel....
Its the sheer number of rocks embedded in clay that make it terrible.

Here in Georgia it is like that a lot. I am a big guy and I have literally jumped on the shovel and barely made a scratch.
Our red clay turns into a brick in the summer when it is hot and dry, and then turns into muck in the winter when it is wet.
"Glacial till" leaves us random gifts from the size of beans to the size of motor blocks - or larger.
conditions like that just turns any form dirt removal into a living nightmare,
Some cemeteries/graveyards have guard, but most don't, it's not like the residents get unruly at night.
Actually, you would be amazed at how many small graveyards are all around us, my last house had a small graveyard in the back corner of it. It was kind of neat digging into the history of it.
Years ago, I had a co-worker who was horrified to realize that he had bought a house that was downhill/downstream/downwind from a cemetery. And the house was on a well and septic tank system.
I told him not to worry, that it was a probably a peaceful place, but he was shaken up pretty badly.
What was he afraid of?

That is actually pretty cool. There was this abandoned quarry I used to go to when I was a kid. It had a cemetery on it. That cemetery was the final resting place for some of the first residents of my home town. so random, just fenced off next to some old sheds in amongst abandoned private propertyOur property was part of a tobacco plantation before the Civil War and the grave yard was the family plot. You could count rings on the trees we cut down and date them back to just short of the Civil War which was when the plantation died.

One thing to note about pre-Civil War graveyards...
While the family was buried inside the marked area (the family heads even had a small blacksmith forged fence around them), they used to bury the slaves around the outside of it. We were warned we could find bones if we did so we never dug anywhere on the other side of the creek. While we never learned where the main house was, our neighbors lived in the former slave quarters. Terrible little house, not only was it falling apart, but they still used gas lamps in some parts of the house, not sure why they stayed in it, they had the money to move or build a new house.
