What is a private scattering ground?

• A. A mausoleum.
• B. A scattering area limited to certain family or affiliated persons.
• C. A public scattering ground for anyone.
• D. A private cemetery facility.

Answer: (B)

A private scattering ground is a place designated for scattering cremated remains, but access is restricted to a defined group—typically the family or others affiliated with the deceased. This captures the idea of privacy and controlled participation, meaning not just anyone can use the site.

This differs from a mausoleum, which is a structure for entombing or housing remains; from a public scattering ground, which is open to the general public; and from a private cemetery facility, which is a privately owned cemetery that may host various burial activities but isn’t defined by restricted scattering access.
