Evolution history of traditional tombs and modern cemeteries

According to the literal classification, tombs have different names such as tomb, grave, seal, mound and burial. "Tomb" refers to those who bury coffins, accumulate soil, level the ground, do not seal or plant trees; "Grave" refers to erecting a monument around the soil. The original meaning of the grave is the high mound of soil, which is a grave with high soil accumulation; The meaning of "seal" is the same as that of grave, but the system level is different from that of grave; The "tomb" is a grave digger and a high mound; "Autumn" is a big burial. The prince is a mountain, the prince is a grave, and Shu Ren is a grave. However, today, graves and tombs have been used by people, and the word "grave" has become the general name of burial places.

With the change of history and the development of society, the cemetery has evolved from the main function of dealing with ashes or remains to a multifunctional commemorative landscape collection. Fully understanding the functional significance of cemetery is of great significance for protecting and developing the humanistic natural landscape of traditional cemetery and building modern cemetery.

Take Longquan Ancient Garden as an example to illustrate:

Longquan Ancient Garden in Shenyang used to follow the traditional tomb system, but with the progress and development of the times, the cemetery industry is also changing. Tomb-Sweeping Day If you look closely, you will find that besides eco-green, there are also WIFI in the cemetery, real-time LED display on large screen, and so on. It's changing really fast.

Of course, whether the garden function of the cemetery can really be brought into play depends on whether the operators can strategically position themselves, stand at a historical height, strengthen social-oriented research, manage and build it as a part of modern urban and rural areas with people-oriented thinking, and treat it as another form of life, so that the cemetery, the oldest commemorative landscape, has ecological effects, emotional functions and artistry, and can reflect the historical and practical values of modern cemeteries.
