Memorials/eulogies/symbolic & ritual objects/trinkets/mourning tokens. Also, post-death material economy such as deceased’s ‘sea chests’/‘sailor’s kits’/‘Dead man’s clothes’ anyone?! 👀

Has anyone suggested funerary practices and material culture of death at sea? Ceremonies/traditions/rituals/superstitions and their cultural variations would be fab to include!
