520    "Death and burial practices vary from one culture to the 
       next, and there's some pretty unusual traditions out 
       there. Have you ever heard of people saving the bones of 
       their ancestors? That's what happens in ossuaries and 
       charnel houses. You might be wondering why people would do
       this, and there are several fascinating reasons you need 
       to read to believe. Inside this creepy volume, readers 
       will find amazing photographs of charnel houses and 
       ossuaries, including the dark passages of the Paris 
       catacombs and the ornately decorated Sedlec Ossuary. 
       Photographs are paired with engaging passages, sidebars, 
       and fact boxes that explain ancient, and not so ancient, 
       death traditions"--Provided by the publisher.
