The woman was reportedly buried sometime in the 16th century. &gt;&gt;In 1998, racial riots against the ethnic Chinese in West Java prompted the production and sale of 'anti-rape corsets'. The belts had a solid crotch strap without holes, and were intended only for brief outings. &gt;&gt;In April, 2002, the Uwe Koetter Jewellers company of Cape Town, South Africa, delivered a spectacular diamond and pearl-encrusted chastity belt made of gold to a British customer.
