[Cz-L] Status in Zelena

Status by graves.
 1. In the beginning stones were humble. Very low and uniform.
     Perched together . Inscriptions In Hebrew only. Dates too.
      Requires Hebrew knowledge and date converter.
     " Here lies Burech Zelig - an observant Jew ".
  2. Jews get richer, stones get taller , marble used,
       More space between graves. German inscriptions appear and dates too,
      Ornamentation . Cohanim get the palms blessing.
        All kind of swans, pigeons , lambs and goats.
        The angel of death with a scythe .
   3. Even richer,
       Obelisks of black granite . Hebrew disappears completely.
       Poems by Shiller and Goethe show up. Letters in gold.
        Fenced in small garden surrounds obelisk .

  4. Very rich. Mausoleoms with greek columns supporting dome.
        The whole family is there. The driver and gardener too .

  5. Later: WW1 military graves of Jews and not Jews
          WW2 mass graves of Jews and not Jews.

  6. Stones inscriptions in Russian. Yiddish.
           Artificial marble with embedded pictures,
             Memory stones for Transnistria victims.
              Wailing wall made out of smashed stones.
                Broken in graves looking for the Jewish gold.

  Now they speak of imbedding barcodes into stones which when read
  will tell you the complete story of the deceased with video and music.
   Your visit will be recorded and kept for resurrection day.
