Nobody can say for sure whether the people who buried the bodies in the bog knew that the sphagnum moss would keep those bodies intact.

It’s hard to say exactly how many bog bodies there are (it depends on whether you count just the fleshy bog bodies or include bog skeletons), but the number is probably in the hundreds.
