<jats:p>This article examines folk beliefs and conceptions concerning death and the afterlife, burial practices as represented in Armenian oral tradition, including their typology, ritual system, and related, in parallel with extensive ethnographic material. The aim and objective of this study is to identify and analyze the burial ritual system, the ritual environment, and the multilayered cultural structure of religious and mythological beliefs and perceptions associated with death.
