The Barrow of the Redeemer, also known as the Great Barrow and Itkovian's Gift, was located about a third of a league outside the city of Black Coral.Toll the Hounds, Chapter 2, US SFBC p.57-58
==In Memories of Ice==
The burial place of Itkovian was made of small gifts or tributes which were piled on his body by all the survivors of the Siege of Coral, who filed by one by one. The procession took all night. The barrow was then invested with Tellann magic as a tribute by the T'lan Imass Itkovian had redeemed and was therefore unassailable.Memories of Ice, Chapter 25
Among the objects included were the Torcs of Treach once worn by Picker and Gruntle.

By the time a year had passed, the Great Barrow was an enormous, circular mound surrounded by a Pilgrim camp that was described as "like an army."Toll the Hounds, Chapter 4, US SFBC p.127-128 The mound continued to grow as arriving pilgrims added more precious objects to its mass.Toll the Hounds, Chapter 2, US SFBC p. 
:The destitute among them carried shiny shells collected from shoreline and tidal pools, or polished stones or nuggets of raw copper. The better off carried jewellery, gem-studded scabbards, strips of rare silk, Delantine linen, Daru councils of silver and gold, loot collected from corpses on battlefields, locks of hair from revered relatives and imagined heroes, or any of countless other items of value.
It lay just beyond the shroud of Kurald Galain that extended for almost a third of a league from the city.
Seerdomin was known for keeping a daily vigil at the Great Barrow.
After Seerdomin fell defending the Redeemer from the Dying God, a lesser burial mound was built for his bones so that he could stand eternal vigilance at the foot of the Redeemer. Additionally, a monastery was constructed to house the Redeemer's High Priestess and support his worship.Toll the Hounds, Epilogue, US SFBC p.1005
