Sepilible

 

In Samuel Johnson’s Dictionary something that is sepilible is defined as that which may be buried. I'm not sure in what context the word might have been used! The word was first recorded by Nathan bailey, a lexicographer who died in 1742.

    For something dead perhaps! Seriously though I have been pondering that. One of the more interesting words.
