method of the two elements, namely the pedestal equipped with a rectangular void in which fits exactly - following the shape of the void - the end of the stone particularly manufactured, smaller than the main part of the stone, and then the stone is laid on the pedestal. This method meant to hinder the stone from overturning by eventual shocks. On this occasion I mention the fact that all along, the research has been made without touching the funeral monument, not more than moving off a branch of a shrub that hindered the picture taking. IV. Cemeteries from Northwestern Romania. Elements of regional individualization. The post-revolutionary years meant for the Jewish communities of Romania a period of research and identification of the own cemeterial patrimony, new situations being elaborated through the identification of a significant number of forgotten Jewish cemeteries. The figures communicated by the FJCR (The Federation of Jewish Communities of Romania) in 2007, identifies in the county of Maramureş 60 cemeteries of the community from Baia Mare and 49 of the one from Sighetu Marmaţiei; in the county of Satu Mare there are 122 cemeteries and 81 in the county of Bihor.171 Because these figures have risen in time, the possibility of their further increase isn’t excluded, through the identification of other Jewish cemeteries as well, unknown in the present, having in view the fact that the witnesses of their existence disappeared and disappearances of localities took place, either through depopulation, or displaced as a result of some hydrographic arrangements (e.g. the locality of Călineşti Oaş from the county of Satu Mare), or due to natural disasters (floods) when the localities have been displaced from the initial precincts. In the studied area, a significant number of Jews establish themselves around the 18th century, which involves the emergence of the first Jewish cemeteries. In Maramureş, after the exodus of Khmelnytskyi an emigration of the Jewish population takes place, in 1787 being mentioned 1214 family members. The first cemeteries mentioned in the Northwestern area of Romania date from the first half of the 18lh century, in Oradea in 1731172 and in Carei in 1744.173 From the first half of the 18th century in Maramureş there have been identified the cemeteries from Rona de Jos (locality in which the number of cemeteries at the beginning of the 20th century has grown to three), Cuhea and in Budeşti, this last one, inaugurated before the year 1800, and in the county of Satu Mare in Medieşul Aurit and Vama.
