Chemerivtsi


In Chemerivtsi we found a totally destroyed cemetery.  Only two stones were intact.  The cemetery did feature stones in a shape that we had  seen only very infrequently before.  These stones featured a vertical section with the inscription facing out and the back attached to a horizontal, long, half-cylinder shape made of concrete.  The cemetery location was open and unprotected and  was cut by numerous trails.  One of the intact stones was apparently that of a fifteen year old girl and bore an inscription on one side in Russian and on the other side in Hebrew.
