μνημεῖα
mnēmeîon
tombs
A structure or monument for remembering the dead, specifically a tomb, sepulchre, or grave; more broadly, any commemorative monument. In most contexts, refers to a constructed burial place such as a tomb or mausoleum, rather than an unmarked grave. Contextual senses include both actual tombs (where remains are interred) and memorial monuments (cenotaphs) that serve as reminders of a person's life or death.
