<upd_detl>In this case, if this is not a common Japanese expression, you may want to add 
"(in Okinawa)" at the head of the meaning/description.
A note regarding this entry, as well as some other recent (and most likely future) 
entries that specifically concern the usage of certain expressions in Okinawa: the 
reference material (text at hand) comes from the 石垣市立八重山博物館（aka 郷土資
料館/歴史博物館）.</upd_detl>
<upd_refs>Text at hand:
琉球列島には、洗骨という習俗があった。洗骨とは、遺体を数年後（３年か５年程）に墓か
ら出し、丁寧に洗ってから、厨子（沖縄では特に骨甕のことを指す）に納め、墓に戻す方法
である。</upd_refs>

<upd_detl>Dair doesn't mention Okinawa. Koj has "洗骨葬" and mentions it is a practice in parts of SE Asia, China, Taiwan, Okinawa &amp; Korea.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>Should "bone storage urn" maybe be "funerary urn" instead? Because funerary urns are as I understand it for both just ashes and 
bones. And "ashes" in a Western context is apparently also mostly bone fragments, apparently.</upd_detl>
