Even today, many of these verdant tranquil sites contain a remarkable progression of the artistic, cultural and religious history of the region. Often old gravestones explain how an entire family lived and died. Neglect, natural aging, and vandalism, unfortunately, have resulted in the destruction of some of the finest examples of early stone carving, and numerous old cemeteries are closed to the public to protect the remaining stones. Through careful hand-rubbing on special paper YOU CAN preserve images representing the evolution of the early stone carvers' art from the 17th century symbols to the more sophisticated and artistic tableaux of the 19th century.
