From Adam's Rib: The wife is buried to the husband's left. It's a practice that may be explained by Biblical traditions but not really Biblical passages. The book of Genesis affirms that 'woman' was created from Adam's rib, but a rib from which side? In some traditions, seemingly very entrenched in the American South, it was a rib from Adam's left side. Hill Crest Cemetery. [2013]
