cinerarium

A Dictionary of Architecture and Landscape Architecture | 2000 | | Copyright

cinerarium (pl. cineraria).
1. Antique ash-chest or urn, often of considerable beauty, to hold cremated human remains. Lids of the square box-like types had horns, so in Neo-Classical architecture the cinerarium lid, with elements drawn from sarcophagus-lids, was the model for a type of capping on funerary monuments, gate-piers, and pedestals.

2. Building to contain ash-chests: a columbarium.
