[ noun ] (geography) a tract of land used for burials
Used in print ("Editorials"...)Or the city can be a graveyard monument to Western intransigence , if that is what the West wants . (Clifford H. Pope, The Giant Snakes....)The argument against this last approach is comparable_to that which rejects stories about hoop_snakes , about snakes that break themselves into many pieces and join up again , or even of ghosts that chase people out of graveyards ; the mere piling_up of testimony does not prove , to the scientific mind , the existence of hoop_snakes , joint_snakes , or ghosts .
