• cemeteries - In general, areas used for burial or entombment. Specifically, typically refers to relatively large public parks or grounds laid out expressly for the interment of the dead, and not being the yard of any church. Originally the term was derived from the Latin "cœmeterium," referring to Roman underground cemeteries or catacombs.
• crosses - Visual works in the shape of two intersecting bars, usually an upright one traversed by a horizontal one, especially those used as Christian symbols. For motifs consisting of two intersecting lines, with many variations in the shapes of the arms, use "crosses (motifs)."
