A wreath
|
The tradition of laying a wreath is the type of European. Its original
is to lay a wreath
in front of the coffin which the corpse is put in it, namely, a wreath
like as a sacred
thing to use to tighten angel's head. Later, it is changed to be a
wreath instead of
a crown of foreigner as a result of wreath's figure is hard and ease
to wear.
The tradition of Greek and Roman is namely that a person who win in
the war, they
will be served honour with wearing a wreath by people of the country
which it is
committed until now. For Chistan believes thai Jesus wears a thorn
crown when he
is impaled on the crucifix. The shape of a crown is similar with a
wreath. For the
dead will be worn a crown to serve with honour him for the last time,
Hindo does too.
The tradition of Greek and Roman will wear a wreath on the dead's
head and then it
is brought to bury at the graveyard. The tradition of Egyptian will
lay a wreath on the
dead's head. Besides the ceremony of Brahman has sone flowers and
a wreath to
decorate beautifilly the corpse. At the present time, the tradition
of laying a wreath of

feeling and
sadness.
