Nota de aplicación
Liturgical containers, often in the shape of coffins, that hold sacred earth or ashes from Ash Wednesday that are meant to be buried in the coffin of a deceased person, so that the dead is considered buried in consecrated ground. This practice dates from a period in which Catholics were forbidden to perform religious rites in Dutch cemeteries. In Old Catholic parishes this practice is still in use.
