Many groups have eternal lamps. Zoroastrians maintain an eternal flame, doing everything they can to transmit that flame from lamp to lamp so that it preserves a continuous chain of combustion back to the dawn of that religion. The ancient Jewish Temple in Jerusalem had an eternal flame burning before the Holy of Holies. Today, Jews make a point of burning (or electrifying) an eternal lamp in front or above the ark where the Torah scrolls are kept in a synagogue, and Catholics have an altar lamp in front of the tabernacle where the sacraments are stored. The Cherokee Nation has preserved an eternal council fire, even carrying coals on the Trail of Tears to Oklahoma. Today, fires lit from those coals burn in both Cherokee, North Carolina and Talequah, Oklahoma. There are also many memorials around the world that include eternal flames.
