    ... Without knowing the national characteristics, it is difficult to say something for sure ... But if we proceed from the ritual monuments, the picture becomes more than understandable. Look, the Left and Right monuments are made of soft sedimentary material - travertine or dense shell rock. This is a local stone, most likely from a nearby quarry. The left monument was repeatedly dismantled and installed in its place. And they didn't do it professionally. There were additional burials here, but, let's say, there was no opportunity to use professional help. family members did all the work with his own hands. The right monument with a cross is a different story. It was clearly paid for and installed by another family member. This the man had money and taste. The monument itself was made and installed at a very high technical level. From choosing a higher stone quality without biological defects in the form of mold or fungus according to the manufacturing method and ornamental carving. This is quite a costly job both in terms of time and tools. ... And at this moment I myself do not understand ... Any master working with ritual stones, having seen such an order, would offer do ALL RATIONAL work throughout the burial. (so it was and will be at all times in any cemetery of this planet). Correct the position of the correct stone and set the left monument with a cross... The customer obviously refused such an offer. Why? Family feud or something... we won't know for sure the answer to that question...
