Human burial isn't interesting for being unique - it's interesting because we take it to be indicative of internal state. That makes it interesting in elephants for the same reason it's absence and then explosion is interesting in humans. If elephants started having quinceaneras all over the globe, we might start to wonder what was going on in their skulls, and what happened to make them assume the previously novel or non-existent behavior.
