Coriolis

Coriolis is buried in Montparnasse Cemetery in Paris.

The top inscription reads:

GASPARD GUSTAVE CORIOLIS
MEMBRE DE L'INSTITUT
DIRECTEUR DES ETUDES
DE L'ECOLE POLYTECHNIQUE
DECEDE LE 19 SEPTEMBRE 1845
A L'AGE DE 51 ANS

which I would translate as

GASPARD GUSTAVE CORIOLIS
MEMBER OF THE INSTITUE
DIRECTOR OF STUDIES
AT THE ECOLE POLYTECHNIQUE
DIED SEPTEMBER 19, 1845
AT THE AGE OF 51
