The material that remains after cremation.
** Only read on if comfortable knowing more detail **
When the ashes are returned, what you have is simply powdered or crushed bone. The cremator is so hot that the casket / coffin and any clothes the deceased is wearing will disappear and do not come back as ashes. The cremated remaining bone is cooled, ground to a powder and placed in the ashes container.
