Abstract
Solon’s reform supposes a drastic change in the importance of women as protagonists of the parting ritual for dead relatives. In the Homeric poems their participation is central, but heroines of the dramatic plays detent a second position in which they can even become harmful for the health of the community. This paper shows the difference between the role of women in the funeral dirge of the epic repertoire and that to which they got reduced in classic Athens tragedy, stressing the ethnomusical aspects that surround the funeral rite itself.
