A burial-place is a site where the remains of a deceased person are interred. There are several synonyms for this word, including cemetery, graveyard, burial ground, burial site, final resting place, necropolis, sepulcher, and tomb. A cemetery is a place where multiple people are buried, often with markers or headstones to identify their graves. A graveyard is similar to a cemetery, but it is usually smaller and often associated with a church. A burial ground is a more general term that can refer to any location where people are buried. A burial site specifically refers to the location where a particular individual is buried. A final resting place is a euphemistic term for a burial-place, often used in obituaries. Necropolis, sepulcher, and tomb refer to burial places that are often grand and monumental in nature, typically reserved for the wealthy or influential.
