Abstract

The present study aims to present, through a bibliographic study, an anthropological analysis of funerary rituals exercised in different cultures and societies, in order to illustrate how these elements guide the construction of cultural identity of the aforementioned companies. Also discusses the various dealings with the deceased, with the goal of enabling an analysis of the cultural fabric of these societies. It also addressed the issue of death as a social event, death as a rite of passage, as a factor in the construction of social identity, death as the beginning of a new life form. I discourse, also on death related to power as a social fact.
