Tombstone is a container object that contains the deleted objects from Active Directory. Actually when an object is deleted from Active Directory, it is not physically removed from the Active Directory for some days. Rather, the Active Directory sets the ‘isDeleted' attribute of the deleted object to TRUE and move it to a special container called Tombstone, previously known as CN=Deleted Objects
Tombstone is a deleted object of an active directory which resides in the database.
A tombstone is an object deleted from the directory, but not yet removed from the database. They are removed (physically deleted) by the garbage collection process once they are older than the tombstone lifetime.The tombstones cannot be accessed through Windows Directories or through Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-ins. However, tombstones are available to Directory Replication Process, so that the tombstones are replicated to all the domain controllers in the domain.
