Who started the practice of erecting gravestones?
#4
The wealthy would be able to afford Gravestones but they also had grave goods. The conflicting interests make having a conventional Gravestone unlikely due to looters. Up until the Romans of course. Commoners would be buried or cremated less adorned but a few would have Gravestones right? Of course the Egyptians had their own Gravestones but are fairly large, expensive and for the upper class. :wink:
