Eruvin 26b (addendum)

Eruv hatzerot: eruvim that join courtyards to allow carrying on Shabbat between two or more homes

Eruv techumin: eruvim that allow people to walk further from their homes on Shabbat by joining different borders.

Food can be used to extend the eruv.  Food established a place as "home", allowing the eruv to extend 2000 cubits beyond that new 'home base'.

Beit haperas: a field that may have been a burial site in the past, posing difficulties for priests.  Priests who walk over graves will enter a state of niddah.
