Why aren't there any human fossils in coal?

Coal forms from plant material that undergoes slow decomposition under high pressure and heat over millions of years. Human fossils are unlikely to be preserved in coal because humans are relatively recent in geological time and are less likely to have been present in the environments where coal formed. Additionally, human remains are usually buried in circumstances that do not lead to coal formation.
