 | | Followers of the Islamic faith also prefer to bury their deceased so as not to delay decomposition. | | | Thus in some traditions, especially with an animistic logic, the remains of the dead are 'banished' for fear their spirits would harm the living if to close, in other rather kept close to help the surviving generations. | | | Humans are not the only species to bury their dead. |

| | Burial at sea - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Two reasons for burial at sea are if the deceased died while at sea and it is impractical to return the remains to shore, or if the deceased died on land but a burial at sea is requested for private or cultural reasons. | | | However, burial at sea is permitted, but needs consultation with a Hindu priest. | | | Not all religions do have a special burial procedure for animals, and it is usually up to the owners to select a ceremony they think appropriate. |

| | The third was the settling of one's affairs, the fourth was the prayer to Hestia, Goddess of the hearth, the fifth was the prayer for safe passage to Hades, and lastly the farewell to family and friends. | | | After the body was interred, a simple ceremony was performed over the grave to sow the earth with the fruits of its bounty, assuring the dead a peaceful rest and returning the land to the use of the living. | | | These steps were only taken when the person was aware that death was inevitable, and were followed by the normal burial procedure. |

| | Processed animal bones are often found at these burial sites, and many archaeologists believe that these are the remains from feasts associated with the funeral rites. | | | It is believed that the bones were the remains of a huge feast which took place close to the monument not long after the burial of the man and his chariot. | | | Although many of the continental burials are earlier than those found in Yorkshire, the burial rites of these regions are so similar that there seems to be little question that some form of communication existed between them. |
