Janva Vitae
Nillumbik Cemetery的点评
点评：I have driven past these very impressive cemetery gates for many years and recall them from my childhood. I have never stopped at the cemetery, but as I had been at a party in nearby Eltham North ... there was still a bit of light ... and it was Sunday so the intersection they sit on was not as busy...it appeared everything was lined up for me to visit.
I am not sure how you would access them more easily, perhaps there is a back entrance to this cemetery.... However, I parked in front of the gates. The words on the gates, "Janva Vitae" means "Gate of Life" .
In 1867 two acres of land was set aside and trustees from 6 denominations appointed to oversee establishment of the cemetery at Diamond Creek. It stands as a record of the pioneering families of the district. The ornamental gateway was erected after the death of pioneer William Ellis in 1896 in accordance with his will.
Alan Marshall- Australian writer, story teller, humanist and social documenter is also buried here. Alan Marshall’s gravestone is a simple rock with the inscription ‘Gurrawilla’ which translates as ‘storyteller’, a name Aborigines in Arnhem Land gave him when he lived there for 8 months.
The cemetery is exceptionally well kept and quite lovely to walk through.

翻译：多年来，我开车经过这些令人印象深刻的墓地大门，并回忆起我的童年。我从来没有在墓地停留过，但因为我参加了附近埃尔特姆北的一个聚会……仍然有一点光……而且那是周日，所以他们所在的十字路口并不那么繁忙……看来一切都已排好队等待我参观。
我不确定你如何更容易地进入它们，也许这个墓地有一个后门……但是，我把车停在了大门前。大门上写着“Janva Vitae”，意思是“生命之门”。
1867 年，划出两英亩土地，并任命了来自 6 个教派的受托人来监督钻石溪公墓的建立。它是该地区先驱家庭的记录。这座装饰性大门是在先驱者威廉·埃利斯 (William Ellis) 于 1896 年去世后按照他的遗嘱修建的。
澳大利亚作家、故事讲述者、人文主义者和社会记录家艾伦·马歇尔也安葬于此。艾伦·马歇尔 (Alan Marshall) 的墓碑是一块简单的岩石，上面刻着“Gurrawilla”，翻译过来就是“讲故事的人”，这是阿纳姆地原住民在他住了 8 个月后给他起的名字。
墓地保存得非常好，漫步其中非常愉快。
