All of the older, pre-Vatican II Catholic Churches had a stone centered in the Altar and this may have housed relics, like street markers on the Hollywood hall or rather walk of Fame, or something similar. The Altars were NOT used to support anything like real burnt offerings. There are incense burners and also Sanctuary Lamps in Churches, the latter sometimes called( from their shape) Torpedo Lamps,but nothing on the altar proper is well, designed to support combustion. Now the post-Vatican II altars are standard. these were nicknamed Flying Wahboards when they first came out. Much lighter construction.
