Burial

Burial was a procedure used across the galaxy to dispose of the corpse of a sentient being by placing it into the ground. After his mother Shmi was tortured to death by a band of Tusken Raiders, Anakin Skywalker buried her in the sand at her husband's homestead. During the Clone Wars, the Gran senator Kharrus was killed on Florrum and buried there under a heap of rocks.
