Abstract
This chapter deals with a reconstruction of Etruscan thoughts about “the last things”, death, funerary rituals, imaginary journeys to and topographies of the afterlife on the one hand, and the end of city-states and people on the other, in the first millennium bce. It is based on archaeological, epigraphic and literary sources, all not without problems – since funerary practices varied locally, religious inscriptions can only partly be translated, and ancient authors may be biased.
