Death, Autopsy and Funeral Ceremonies among the Dìì of Adamawa (North Cameroon)
This article describes the changes which occurred in the practices relating to death, autopsy and funeral among the Dìì since we have on them a written documentation dating from around one hundred years. In spite of important modifications and in spite of religious differentiation between traditionalists, Christians and Muslims, a major characteristic has generally persisted : all the dead of a village community share the same cemetery.
