just use any tag you feel appropriate. If there will ever be a
consensus that tomb=cenotaph is a bad tag and a better tag is
chosen, you can easily change your objects. If you don't tag
it, nobody can find it ;-) You can (also additionally) add a
memorial:type=cenotaph.<br>

Tomb = a place with something (remains/body/ashes etc)<br>
Cenotaph = a place without that something (remains/body/ashes etc)<br>
<br>
If tomb=cenotaph then money in your bank account = no money in your
bank account? You can send it to me. :)<br>
<br>
--------------------------<br>
I would think most cenotaphs are in commemoration of WW1 & WW2
... and as such are specifically mentioned in the OSM wiki for
historic=memorial as "usually remembering special persons, peoples
lost their lives in the wars.
" <br>
<br>
--------------------------------<br>
I have just gone through the LPI cenotaphs (valid&legal OSM
data) and added those not in the data base as historic=memorial with
description=cenotaph ... in this way I avoided invention yet another
tag. You can add the description tag to anything .. even a tomb. <br>
I have also add the description tag to some cenotaphs I know that
are not in the LPI data base (but in the OSM data base .. I added
them some time ago). I know there are a lot more around .. used
infrequently .. 11 November and ANZAC day spring to mind. <br>
