Feliza, what does "cementerio ventilado" translate to?
Hi Gregory, cementerio ventilado refers to graveyards outside of or beside the church walls as in the early days of the colonial catholic church, the dead were buried in crypts underground the church. Later with the decentralizing of the church power cemeteries like the current ones were built in locations outside of the church grounds and administered by city/towns authorities.
Got it, thank you, as always.
My pleasure!
