Graves are usually located in special areas set aside for the purpose of burial, such as graveyards or cemeteries.

Dota Masahisa
''Dota'' is a series of strategy video games. The series began in 2003 with the release of ''Defense of the Ancients'' (''DotA''), a fan-developed multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) custom map for the video game '' Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos'' and its expansion, '' The Frozen Throne''. The original map features gameplay centered around two teams of up to five players who assume control of individual characters called " heroes", which must coordinate to destroy the enemy's central base structure called an "Ancient", to win the game. Ownership and development of ''DotA'' were passed on multiple times since its initial release until Valve hired the map's lead designer IceFrog and after a legal dispute with Blizzard Entertainment, the developer of ''Warcraft III'', brokered a deal that allowed Valve to inherit the trademark to the ''Dota'' name. The first standalone installment in the series, ''Dota 2'', was released by Valve in July 2013. A sequel to ''DotA'', the game reta ...

Oda Nobutaka
was a samurai and member of the Oda clan. He was adopted as the head of the Kanbe clan, which ruled the middle region of Ise Province and so he was also called Kanbe Nobutaka (神戸信孝). Biography Nobutaka was born as the third son of Oda Nobunaga and he was called ''San Shichi'' (三七), possibly because he was born on the seventh day of the third month, in the Japanese lunar calendar system. His mother was a concubine named '' Sakashi'' (坂氏). A theory has it that Nobutaka was actually born twenty days earlier than Nobunaga's second son Oda Nobukatsu but it was reported later than Nobukatsu's birth to Nobunaga and thus he was acknowledged as the third son. According to this theory, it is also believed that the low status of his mother's parents had played a factor as well. In 1568, after Nobunaga controlled Ise Province, Nobutaka was installed as the head of the Kanbe clan, whose seat was Kanbe Castle, near present-day Suzuka, Mie. The next year, his elder brother ...
