Historical note: Comb graves are a type of covered grave that are often called "tent graves." The length of the grave was covered by rocks or other materials that look like the gabled roof or comb of a building. They were popular in the 19th and early 20th centuries. It is conjectured that these graves were covered to protect them from either weather or animals, or perhaps both. While comb graves can be found in other southern states, the Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee has the highest concentration of these types of graves.

A creation based on a photo of a flashlight shining through a comb.

This is a maquette, on display at Chillida Leku, of Chillida's first vision (1966) of what the wind combs would look like. It would take another 10 years before the final versions were installed.
