English: To the Meriam Mir people of Mer (Murray Island) in the easternTorres Strait, bright meteors are an important element of death customs andbeliefs. We draw from a combination of ethno-historic studies and interviewswith Meriam elders to understand the role of bright meteors (Maier) in TorresStrait traditions relating to spiritual elements of death rites using aframework of symbolic anthropology. We find that bright meteors serve assymbolic representations of death and mortuary purification practices and showhow the physical properties of meteors are incorporated in ritual, belief,spirituality, and custom.  Meriam Mir: Meriamgize maier oditautlare nade eud onagri a mokakalam eudkerker. Kemerkemer daratkapda kikem kerkerira pardar, dorge a oka nako TorresStraitge eud tonar bud ueplare. Debe bibi maieride onatager eud ia onagri analu tonar able maierira seri/kakaper a dum able tonar umerem a simir akedrem.
