Gale Wale has posted my latest "Digging for Answers" column in the current Online Graveyard Rabbit Journal. The question asked was:
"Why are bodies buried facing certain directions (east-west, north-south, etc.), or in certain attitudes (head up, head down, etc.)?"
Read the answer in the column. Did you already know the answer?
If you have questions concerning cemeteries and burials, please ask! Contact Gale Wall through http://www.contact-gyra.blogspot.com/.
