The Alamo Coffin, believed to be the tomb of Davy Crockett, William B Travis, Jim Bowie and the other Alamo heroes, in San Fernando Cathedral, or Cathedral of Our Lady of Candelaria and Guadalupe, originally built 1738-50 and enlarged in the Gothic style by Francois P Giraud in 1868, on the Main Plaza in San Antonio, Texas, USA. During the Battle of the Alamo Mexican General Santa Anna raised a flag of 'no quarter' from the church tower, marking the beginning of the siege. The bodies of the defenders of the Alamo were burned by Santa Anna, but their ashes were collected and buried, and later enshrined in this marble sarcophagus. The cathedral is listed on the US National Register of Historic Places. Picture by Manuel Cohen
