Yeah, that's an ancient tradition, but most Protestant sects are uninterested in it. It is a little funny to me. God took Enoch because "he walked with God" but they draw the line at Mary who literally lived with God and walked with him all the way to the cross. Nope God doesn't like her as much as he likes Enoch and Elijah.
But yes, no claim is made about whether her body was taken before or after natural death. But the long standing tradition of the church is that she was taken one way or another. There is not nor has there ever been a burial site.
