It is a tradition that is already many years old. In fact, remains of flowers have been discovered in graves from the late Paleolithic age, more than 13,000 years ago. It is believed that, in ancient times, the fact of placing flowers near the mortal remains of the deceased was due to the fact that the smell they give off neutralizes the smell of the remains. Although we no longer have this problem, we have continued to preserve this custom, with very different intentions. For this reason, and although a funeral always represents a negative situation, the presence of flowers in them is intended to evoke positive feelings, support for the victim's relatives and respect and affection towards them.
