When a player dies, a grave will pop up, containing a small honor message, your name and the items you have lost on death.
A grave will ALWAYS appear, no matter what. If you die above or in lava, the grave will search for any close solid block to spawn on. look in trivia section for more info on grave spawning
Their are 9 models available from which you can choose. Simply press ‘M’ on your keyboard and a menu showing off all graves pops up, letting you choose whichever grave you want. The model you choose will be remembered even after you log out.
The Key can be customized in Minecraft’s Control Settings menu.
Graves always spawn facing east, but they can be rotated while sneaking (default, hold Shift key and right click block). They have 32 rotate stances. (every click makes it turn 11.5°)
Graves have a small chance of spawning a bunch of bones under your grave…

Graves come with an inventory that gets filled with the player’s inventory when they die.
The items can be taken back in many ways :
If the grave is dedicated to you :
Right click the grave to open it’s interface. You can take out any items you like
Mine the grave. All items will be dropped, and you can pick them up.
if the grave is from someone else :
Right click the grave to open it’s interface. You can loot 1 item. then the grave will be sealed, and no more items can be taken out.
If the player from whom the gravestone is, and that player is offline, you can mine the grave. If the player is online, you can not this is mainly to prevent grievers from placing graves everywhere.
-Note that items can be taken out, but not placed in.
-If a player takes away an item, the grave will be sealed to everyone, except the owner.
this means that 1, and only 1 item can be taken.
-In creative mode, you can fill graves with items.
