Victims of burglaries often report that they feel they might be personally polluted. It suggests that our possessions are like extensions of ourselves. Think of the kind of the things you buy second-hand - you'd have no problem in buying a second-hand car, but second-hand underwear (no matter how clean) you might not even want to touch. Even after we die, possessions may still remain a part of us. This is demonstrated by burial sites, where domestic utensils, jewelry and weapons are found. We may even become immortalized in our possessions as they are handed down from one generation to another.
