Why gargoyles are on churches why?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A gargoyle is a carved stone grotesque designed to carry water away from a roof and the walls of a building, most obviously seen in churches. It is most often seen as a medieval addition, but was known to the ancient Greeks , ancient Egyptians and derives from the Latin word Gula. Throughout the history of churches, gargoyles were used to convey the idea of evil, convincing people to go to church with the idea that the end was near. Gargoyles can represent Lions, the Wolf, Snakes. Goats, Monkeys, Eagles, Griffins, Harpies and Mermaids. They would now be replaced by gutters

It was believed in the 19th century that gargoyles warded of evil and served as protection against witches.

Why is Helen Keller buried at the National Cathedral?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This was considered a (national) hoor to a national heroine or celebrity. Helen"s body was cremated and her ashes placed in a niche alongside those of her Teacher Annie Sullivan Macy, and another urn containing the remains of Polly Thompson, one of her longtime guides and traveling companions. Miss Keller was of the Swedenborgian religion and the Washington Cathedral is of the Episcopalian denomination. Perhaps the Swedenborgians do not have any cemetery or similar facilities in Washington. It was originally intended that she be taken to Tuscumbia for burial in a local cemetery. There is a statue 9Bronze, very well done) of her in a cemetery that is, alas a cenotaph, not an actual tomb site. Some Blind charity did a very subdued voiced under commercial showing this cemetery in the late sixties, early seventies but did not mention that Helen is not interrred there.
