What NECROLATRY Means
- noun: superstitious worship or veneration of the dead.“We have already seen that necrolatry existed in ancient Japan, and, as necrolatry is a worship of the dead in general, if descendants are to have a worship of their dead ancestors as a necrolatry, in that case a form of ancestor worship naturally comes to pass.”
