coffin

A coffin is a container used to hold and transport a deceased person's body. It is typically made of wood, metal, or other sturdy materials, designed to protect the body and provide a respectful way to present it during funerals or burial services. Coffins usually have a rectangular shape with a lid that can be sealed. They are used in various cultural and religious practices worldwide as a respectful way to handle remains, often placed in cemeteries or crematories after funeral ceremonies.
