Tomb

A tomb (Ancient Greek: τύμβος tumbos) or sepulchre (Latin: sepulcrum) is a repository for the remains of the dead. It is generally any structurally enclosed interment space or burial chamber, of varying sizes. Placing a corpse into a tomb can be called immurement, although this word mainly means entombing people alive, and is a method of final disposition, as an alternative to cremation or burial.
