    That's a nice way to make a pillow.

    I appreciate your vocabulary lessons.

    Do you think he's still in there? I find those memorials a bit creepy. :)

    They've tried to make him comfy with his rolled up stone pillow! Apparently his family asked for his remains to be moved back to their village, so I think this one must be empty!

    I could spend hours looking at this kind of memorial and recumbent statues.
