In the biblical account, after the Gibeonites demanded the execution of seven descendants of Saul, it was Rizpah, the concubine of Saul, who protected their bodies. She spread sackcloth on a rock and kept watch over them, driving away birds and wild animals from desecrating the remains until it rained. Her actions demonstrated her devotion and prompted King David to give the deceased a proper burial, which highlighted the importance of honoring the dead in that culture.
