  • To re-bury in a grave.
  • Usage notes

    * This term is equally applicable whether the new interment is into the same grave as previously (as might happen after a body is exhumed for a medical autopsy) or into a new one (as might happen if a body was originally buried in a place later deemed inappropriate). * The spellings (reintering) (for (reinterring)) and (reintered) (for (reinterred)) exist as well, but are much less common.
