Interesting photo! There is many symbolic meanings for the Dove in all the cultures.Some meanings are peace and others spiritual and related to heaven, love and a symbol of peace and innocence.
it is a grave stone ;)
forgot to mention, here are the links for the laughing dove: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laughing_dove) and the mourning dove: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mourning_Dove). Now that I'm searching more though, I think it may most likely be a collared dove (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collared_dove) or the one that AshishNimkar is mentioning right above (his/her second comment)
Also check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Turtle_Dove
Check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purple-backed_Starling
it might be a mourning dove or a laughing dove
" Everyone shall taste the death. Then unto Us you shall be returned "
It's a Quran verse written on a tomb It says " Everyone shall taste the death. Then unto Us you shall be returned "
Yes! That would be so cool to know.
