Why is it masculine?
Cimiteri is masculine because it derives from Latin "cimiterium" (from Greek "koimeterion," meaning "sleeping place"), which was a second-declension neuter noun that became masculine in Italian through gender reassignment during the Romance language evolution. Italian regularly shifted many Latin neuter nouns to masculine, particularly those ending in -ium that became -ero in Italian.
