Navajo Funeral Customs And Burial Practices
The Navajo do not bury their dead in graves, wrapping the body in a blanket and placing it on the ground with personal effects. If an infant, cradle and trinkets are added. Stones are piled to deter coyotes, and a horse may be slain at the grave for the journey to the spirit world. They sometimes rely on white neighbors to perform burial if near white settlements.
