Item’s are ‘child’ level descriptions to ‘parent’ objects, (e.g. one page of a whole book).

  • HE SARCOPHAGUS is the most popular form of Cemetery memorial at this time. The name comes from the Greeks, but the style of the modern sarcophagii is quite different from their coffin- shaped stone boxes in which they placed their dead. No other style of monument gives more assurance of permanence than this. They are low and massive and may be ornate in design or severely plain. The most beautiful designs may be executed in either marble or granite.
