The sites in this specially photographed and brilliantly original study range from the Monastery of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Palermo, where the living would visit mummified or skeletal remains and lovingly dress them; to the Paris catacombs; to fantastic bone-encrusted creations in Austria, Cambodia, the Czech Republic, Ecuador, Egypt, Germany, Greece, Italy, Peru, Portugal, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, and elsewhere.
Paul Koudounaris photographed more than seventy sites for this book. He analyzes the role of these remarkable memorials within the cultures that created them, as well as the mythology and folklore that developed around them, and skillfully traces a remarkable human endeavor.

My Dog’s New Favorite Toy!
My pup is absolutely obsessed with this bottle-shaped dog toy—it’s the perfect mix of fun and durability! It crinkles, without the lid obnoxious noise. Highly recommend for any dog!

A perfect addition to my dog’s toy collection
Cute dog toy that is a fun toy to add to my dog’s collection especially since we live near wine country. Jameson also loves that there’s a squeaker, and started playing with it right away.

Quite small.
These were way smaller than I imagined based on the photos. Those were obviously ai generated photos that don’t even look like the product at times. They are pretty flimsy and I wouldn’t buy again. My dog will tear this apart in 2 min. But it’s a good size to throw around I guess or maybe for a much smaller dog that doesn’t also want to chew.
3 stars because we will get some play out of them and there’s 2. Just know what you are getting
