OT
I was in a cemetery in Virgina, one that went back to the 1800's, and lying around, not especially by graves, were 20 or 30 or more things that looked like bells with handles, maybe 15" long, 6" wide at the "bottom", but with no clapper. Made of some poured metal, iron or lead or an alloy. Silver or grey color. With a design on the handle and surface. Decorative, meant to be pretty.
Besides the ones by the water hose connection, next to the road, and those next to the "garden shed", I dont' think I saw any at any particular grave, but of course I didn't visit every grave.
What are these called? What do they do?
(FWIW the sides of the bell part were sort of S-shaped, starting at the handle and getting wider, then curving so the diammeter stayed the same, then getting wider again.)
