Question Burning of the cord

Since I got such a great responce about lotus births, I though I would ask another one!
I have recently found out that some cultures burn the cord, i think it is a ritualistic practice but forgive me if I am wrong. What do others think of this and do you have any good references for me to read?

Hi there

I'm sure I read a thread on here recently about cord burning.

Hmm... hold on..

Cord burning (and hello)

Burning the umbilical cord - now with pictures!

With some discussion on them.
