Yup, take plenty of pics. As far as I know, Voodoo burial practices are pretty much the same as any. Bury being the keyword. In New Orleans those of the Voodoo faith are above ground due to the water table.

I'm sort of a cemetary fan myself. I spent some time at the one attached to St. John the Baptist Cathedral in Savannah and I am looking forward to seeing another in Savannah soon. I forget the name of that one but I was told it's very nice and has a great history.

I also love the out of the way collection of headstone types that you find while traveling. When I lived in NJ, I would walk some of the old Revolutionary war battlefield gravesites.

I am a sucker for any historical marker along a roadside. I recall as a kid wanting to see Molly Pitcher's well. I finally convinced my parents to take a ride there one day. http://www.waymarking.com/waymarks/WM6M ... reehold_NJ

My mom never quite understood my facination with gravesites and historical markers.

40 plus years ago it was hard to find female role models in history books. Aside from Betsey Ross, Joan of Arc and a few other women, they were few and far between. Molly Pitcher was a local by my standards.

The graveyards of New Orleans and the surrounding area are interesting because bodies put into the ground 'float' to the top.
Scimitars were not available - beware January 19, 2038 is upon us.

Ok, so this is an old thread, but i'm interested ;)

Can I ask why you (Profwag) think they are funerary features? Was there any human remains or anything?

I notice that this thread was brought over from somewhere else so apologies if i'm asking about something which had bee covered already.
