A funeral is a ceremony for celebrating, respecting, sanctifying, or remembering
the life of a person who has died. Funerary customs comprise the complex of beliefs
and practices used by a culture to remember the dead, from interment itself,
to various monuments, prayers, and rituals undertaken in their honor. Customs
vary widely between cultures, and between religious affiliations within
cultures.

The word funeral comes from the Latin funus, which had a variety of meanings,
including the corpse and the funerary rites themselves. Funerary art is art produced
in connection with burials, including many kinds of tombs, and objects specially
made for burial with a corpse.

Funeral rites are as old as the human culture itself, predating modern Homo
sapiens, to at least 300,000 years ago. For example, in the Shanidar cave in Iraq, in
Pontnewydd Cave in Wales and other sites across Europe and the Near East, Neanderthal skeletons have been
discovered with a characteristic layer of flower pollen.

This has been interpreted as suggesting that Neanderthals believed in an afterlife, although the evidence is not unequivocal – while the dead were apparently indeed
buried deliberately, the flowers might have been introduced by burrowing
rodents.
