Cemetery comes from the Greek meaning 'sleeping place' and refers to land designated as a burial spot. A graveyard is technically referring to burial grounds in a churchyard although I have sometimes used both terms interchangeably in this quiz..
A grave is simply a hole dug in the ground to receive a coffin or a dead body. They are usually typically marked by a stone or mound. These ten questions deal with some famous Europe and US ones from different walks of life.
Asian mausoleums are some of the largest and grandest in the world and some dynasties shrines date back centuries. Most questions relate to knowledge about the inhabitants. I have tried to give hints in the clues or in the choice of the wrong answers.
A 'Tomb of the Unknown Soldier' contains the remains of an unknown soldier killed in war. They commemorate all those that were never identified or have no grave. Some monuments are considered such a tomb but are actually cenotaphs with no grave.
