No, as others have already said he and his co-conspirators were hung drawn and quartered. After quartering the various parts of the bodies were stuck on spikes and displayed in different parts of Westminster and London. It was common practice of the time that when the flesh had rotted, or been eaten by crows etc. that the remains would be thrown onto the nearest midden heap.

If you go to the link provided you can see an actual copy of "The Weekely Newes" printed and distributed on Monday 31st. January 1606, from a shop by the Great North Door of St.Pauls, which gives a first hand account of the executions.

The traditional punishment for traitors was to leave thier remains hanging in public, at Traitor's Gate, to be pecked at by the crows as a warning to others. Doubt there was much left of him after that

Was there much left to bury after hanging, drawing, quartering and burning?

I thought he was, effectively, cremated!

He was executed in Old Palace Yard, Westminster, so his remains may have been buried there
