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.

another view of the fabulous wooden comb I got at an airport shop in Costa Rica. It's about 4" long and about 2 1/2" or so across the other way. I'm not sure how thick it is offhand, but would guess about 8mm or so.

A great comb over caught outside Megabikes on Wexford Street,Dublin.

creatures of the deep or outer space...actually a few inches under the surface on bright sunny day

the bar dog at palmer's had a serious comb over. it was awesome.

The colony is huge at the moment -- it was really hard to find the queen. There were bees 3-4 deep on the frames. Finally we got the queen in the trap. We marked her green, this year's colour; though it's possible that she's a queen from last year. You can recognise her by her longer body and bigger size. And now we can find her easily!

There was a pair of these on the lily pads. The other one had a redder comb but this one came closer. I assume it is a younger one with the darker hues still in the comb?
