wooden crosses
Burial site markers
Wooden crosses are crosses made of wood, used as grave markers, religious symbols, or memorials.
Simple wooden crosses mark graves in rural cemeteries and battlefield burial sites.
They appear as roadside memorials at accident scenes: A cluster of wooden crosses stood where the teenagers had died.
In religious contexts, wooden crosses serve as devotional objects or church decorations, sometimes carried in processions.
