Cream Brand Peanut Butter Fisher-Watson Wall Paper Company Placing Small Stones • on Headstones of Graves SAGINAW. MICII. The significance of the Jewish custom of placing small stones on top of the headstones of the graves of their dead is probably derived from the most primitive stages of civilization. It is associated with a custom widespread in primitive times, and also found in various parts of the world to this day, of piling heaps of stones to mark the place of burial. It may be, indeed, that burial originally took the form of covering the dead body with little stones. Whether, in its origin, this custom was humani- tarian and intended to protect the body of one's beloved, or had a superstitious motive to prevent the spirit from wandering about, can- not be definitely ascertained. It is probable that the desire to pro- tect the body came first, and the rationalization, that its spirit was prevented from doing harm to others, came later. ; It is out of this ancient custom that the habit of erecting a stone on the grave of the dead has prob- ably been derived. Among Jews at present the custom of placing little stones on the headstone is inter- preted as a sign of reverence for the dead. The visitor indicates, through putting the little stones on top of the headstone, his wish to add his mate to the memorial in their honor.
