Un examen de la réflexion anthropologique relative au thème de la mort est suivi d'une évaluation de la contribution de l'archéologie au traitement de ce thème. L'exemple choisi - les Aztèques - qui nous est connu à travers des documents historiques, iconographiques autant qu'archéologiques, illustre les possibilités et les limites de l'archéologie à cerner toute la complexité de leur idéologie de la mort.
