Casket burial

Casket burials are practised by many cultures and religions around the world, and are one of the most common methods of burial.

The principle behind a casket burial is to preserve the body underground, where it naturally decomposes and returns to the soil. The advantage of a casket funeral is that it allows the body to revive the natural process of decomposition and return the its chemistry to the soil, thus contributing to the ecological cycle.

The casket burial ceremony can include several elements depending on culture and religion. It can include prayers, memorial services, the placing of flowers on the casket, and other rituals related to the remembrance of the deceased and saying farewell.
