Traditionally, the Navajo people do not use headstones for graves. Instead, they often mark graves with natural objects or create simple earthen mounds. The emphasis is more on the spiritual aspects of the burial rather than physical markers. However, in modern times, some Navajo may adopt headstones or other markers influenced by non-Navajo practices.
