The Funeral Customs of Tibetan People

藏族在漫长的历史过程中,先后存在着火葬、石葬、墓葬、天葬、塔葬、灵葬、树葬以及水葬等丧葬形式。由于受到历史、地理与宗教的交互作用,藏族的丧葬仪式逐渐发生变化,形成了有别于其他民族的、独具高原特色的丧葬文化。

In the long history,Tibetan people have adopted the cremation,tombs,stone burial,tower burial,celestial burial,pagoda burial,tree burial,water burial,etc.as their funeral forms.Due to the historical,religious and natural conditions of Tibet,the funeral rites of Tibetan people have changed gradually and formed unique characteristics which are quite different from other ethnic groups.
