| has gloss | fin: Rovio tarkoittaa yleisesti isoa tulta, muun muassa poltettavasta puukasasta. Joissakin kulttuureissa on varsinkin entisaikaan ollut tapana hävittää ruumiit polttamalla roviolla, mutta nykyaikana yleisesti länsimaissa tuhkaus toteutetaan tuhkauslaitoksessa eli krematoriossa. Roviolla polttaminen on vanha teloitustapa. |

| has gloss | por: Uma pira (do Grego: πυρά, pyrá, de πυρ, pýr, fogo) é uma estrutura, em geral feita de madeira, aonde se queima o corpo humano como parte de um ritual funerário, também chamada de pira funerária. Como uma forma de cremação, o corpo é colocado sobre a pira, a qual é então incinerada. Tradicionalmente, piras são usadas para cremação do morto em hinduísmo. Na Inglaterra, o caixão é colocado sobre a pira apagada; contudo, na Índia, a pira já está acesa. Piras não são comuns no mundo ocidental, nos dias de hoje, e foram substituídas pela cremação em fornos de crematórios. Em um funeral de vikings, a pira era construida em um navio, a qual tinha o formato do focinho de um dragão. |
