Here is another sign from the property of Hotel Santo Domingo — this time discussing the cemetery found onsite — first in Spanish, then converted to English.
Cementerio
Formado por una crujia de dieciseis mausoleos en cada lado. Los dominicos eran estudiosos de astronomia, numerologia y otras disciplinas. Esto nos hace pensar que al sumar los numerales que conforman al dieciseis (1+6), se obtiene 7, numero de la eternidad segun la creencia. Es probable que este cementerio fuera para uso exclusive de los frailes de mayor jerarquia.
Cemetery
Formed by a corridor of sixteen mausoleums on each side. The Dominicans avidly studied astronomy, numerology and other disciplines. This brings us to think that upon adding the numerals comprising the 16, (1+6), we obtain a seven, number that according to belief, represents eternity. It is probable that this cemetery was used exclusively for the higher hierarchy frians.
