Libitina
The grove (lucus) of Libitina was located on the Esquiline Hill, as were several religious sites indicating that the area had “unhealthy and ill-omened” associations. A public cemetery was located outside the Esquiline Gate, in the Campus Esquilinus. A temple of Venus in the grove of Libitina celebrated its founding anniversary August 19, the day of the Vinalia Rustica. When a person died, the treasury of the temple collected a coin as a “death tax” supposed to have been established by Servius Tullius. During a plague in 65 AD, 30,000 deaths were recorded at the temple. Livy notes two occasions when the death toll exceeded Libitina’s capacity. A panel (collegium) of funeral directors (dissignatores) was based in the grove of Libitina.

Funeral coin
Begrafenisloodje
Begrafenisloodje served multiple roles in the Low Countries during the 16th-19th centuries, acting as payment for gravediggers and pallbearers or other funerary expenses, or acting as a commemorative for the funeral of the deceased—either to those attending the ceremonies or to the respective church in remembrance of the departed. When they were utilized to indicate payment, a punch was generally placed upon one or both sides to act as a form of “cancellation” for the services rendered and payment received.
