Cemetery


A cemetery or graveyard is a place where the remains of deceased people are buried or otherwise interred. The word ''cemetery'' (from Greek ''κοιμητήριον'', "sleeping place")〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=cemetery&allowed_in_frame=0 )〕 implies that the land is specifically designated as a burial ground. The older term graveyard is often used interchangeably with cemetery, but primarily referred to a burial ground within a churchyard.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Know Your English: Difference between 'graveyard' and 'cemetery' )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=What’s the Difference Between a Graveyard and a Cemetery )
The intact or cremated remains of people may be interred in a grave, commonly referred to as burial, or in a tomb, an "above-ground grave" (resembling a sarcophagus), a mausoleum, columbarium, or other edifice. In Western cultures, funeral ceremonies are often observed in cemeteries. These ceremonies or rites of passage differ according to cultural practices and religious beliefs. Modern cemeteries often include crematoria, and some grounds previously used for both, continue as crematoria as a principal use long after the interment areas have been filled.
== Definition ==
The Oxford English Dictionary defines a cemetery as a "burial-ground generally; now esp. a large public park or ground laid out expressly for the interment of the dead, and not being the ‘yard’ of any church. (Cemetery c)" and specifies that the term "...originally applied to the Roman underground cemeteries or catacombs "〔Oxford English Dictionary, 2nd Edition 1989, online edition〕 Cemeteries are normally distinct from churchyards, which are typically consecrated according to one denomination and are attached directly to a single place of worship.
