ABSTRACT:
A novel casket and burial accessory for use in the burial or interment process that incorporates soil or some other natural material from a specific location to which the deceased and/or their family has a sentimental or religious connection. The natural material selected for use with the invention is chosen to represent or embody a connection between the deceased, his family and relatives and to a particular land thus expressing their religious beliefs, yearning or some other connection to the land from which the natural material is from. The burial accessory is constructed as a rigid, semi-rigid or flexible platform with a natural material affixed to its surface using glue or adhesive. The burial accessory can be adapted to be affixed to a casket on its underside, placed under the deceased inside the casket or under the deceased. A casket liner impregnated or covered with a natural material is adapted to be placed inside a casket. The natural material can be affixed directly to the interior and/or exterior portions of a casket. An elongated cloth or plastic bag containing the natural material can be placed under the deceased within the casket.
