Summary/Abstract: Etnolinguistic and anthropological field work in Rostov on Don region (villages Margaritovo, Semibalki, Pavlo-Ochakovo, Chumbur-Kosa, town Azov) was organized in 2015-2017. The materials of these expeditions are focused on death rites of local population in the border of Russia and Ukraine. The collected data of traditions and revitalization of old rites are very important for multidisciplinary study of the migrants from the Balkans (Arnauts, or Greeks and Albanians, according to historical archives of the 18th century) on the territory of the former Russian Empire.The author has paid special attention to the tradition of death rites in 19th – beginning 21st century. The memorial rituals on certain fixed days throughout the year are other theme of the studies. All of the materials are collected from our informants last years. We can analyze transformation of death rites and memorial rituals during the 20th century.
