Figure The Odds - Two Burial urn's = Scary

I wonder how many people have found one of these let alone two. Today I got up and hit the beach at low tide to look for a gold wedding band that a 16 year old girl had lost from her deceased Grandmother. I did not have any luck and will try again. The place that i was looking for the ring gave me a great hit and I thought cool maybe I'm going to find the ring that was lost yesterday so I can return it to the owner. Nope! it wasn't to be. Instead I found another burial urn. On Sep 21 2014 I found the brightly colored urn without the top and then went back a week later in rough surf and found the top. Everyone told me bad karma return it to its resting place. I did just that. Now today I find another one with top. Go figure. I guess that beach is a favorite place for burial ceremonies. Anyway thanks for looking Happy hunting and stay safe out there.

I thought you were supposed to spread the ashes, not throw the whole urn in!
 

I don't know! Never did it

Those are pretty urns, but I can't understand people throwing the urn in the water too. We scattered my Dad's ashes in the N.C. mountains. I didn't know how they did it at sea.
 

Interesting finds, I was part of a ceremony once where we did spread the ashes at sea on a boat nearly a mile offshore,throwing the whole urn over is something we didn't do nor have a ever heard of it.Your finds minus the urn is what mine looked like last night at low tide.I counted 6 detectors on the dry sand yesterday in the 2 hours I was out,no wonder Iam not finding the gold��

Yes there has been a lot of traffic out there. Just remember the early bird catches the worm. Lol

I think these urn's are from Japan and have wash to sea by that tidal wave they had some years ago.
 

They could have been Catholic. Catholic tradition is to be buried on blessed ground ashes should not be spread. We had friend that wanted to be buried at sea he was Catholic. We where instructed to purchase a specific urn seal it. We dropped him 15 miles off Ft Lauderdale.
Just a guess maybe they tried to follow tradition.
 

That is very interesting. I will be putting it back in the sea in the next few days.
