The monograph summarizes and analyzes ideas about death and posthumous existence in the traditional culture of the Celtic and Germanic peoples. Particular attention is paid to the description of the so-called "parallel world" and possible contacts with it. The mysterious Celtic "sid" - a wonderful hill where strange creatures live, half-people, demigods, islands across the sea, where women rule - how all this correlates with the burial mounds of ancient Germans, with their custom to send the deceased to unknown lands on a ship and with their faith in the abode of Asgard, where the gods live and where they are in the dwelling of people, Midgard gard? The monograph also carries out a number of linguistic reconstructions, which makes it possible to identify the "concept of dying" at the most archaic level, and of all the criteria, the criterion of purely linguistic is the most reliable in this case.
