Origin of the cemetery:

The location of family tombs often needs to be selected. In China, Feng Shui masters select the location and choose an area with good wind. Even where a tribe or community is responsible for providing a cemetery, being buried in a community cemetery is an enviable privilege. Outsiders can live in towns or cities but cannot be buried in their cemeteries.

In most cultures, providing a burial place for the deceased was originally a family obligation, because it is generally believed that kinship ties remain despite death. In the Bible, the main feature of the land purchased by Abraham from the Hittites was that there were caves in which Abraham could bury the dead in his family. Preserving family tombs has been a long-standing custom in many parts of the world.
