The threefold death, which is suffered by kings, heroes, and gods, is a reconstructed Proto-Indo-European theme encountered in Indic, Greek, Celtic, and Germanic mythology. Some proponents of the trifunctional hypothesis distinguish two types of threefold deaths in Indo-European myth and ritual. In the first type of threefold death, one person dies simultaneously in three ways. He dies by hanging (or strangulation or falling from a tree), wounding and by drowning (or poison.) These three deaths are foretold, and are often punishment for an offense against the three functions of Indo-European society. The second form of the threefold death is split into three distinct parts; these distinct deaths are sacrifices to three distinct gods of the three functions.

| - La muerte triple o triple muerte, que sufren reyes, héroes, y dioses, es un tema supuestamente protoindoeuropeo, reconstruido a partir de relatos medievales de la mitología celta y germánica y atestiguada arqueológicamente a partir de cuerpos antiguos como el Hombre de Lindow. Algunos defensores de la hipótesis de la trifuncionalidad distinguen dos tipos de muertes triples en los rituales y mitos indoeuropeos. En el primer tipo de muerte, una persona muere simultáneamente de tres maneras. Muere colgado (o estrangulado o cayendo de un árbol), ahogado (o por veneno), y herido. Estas tres muertes son pronosticadas, y a menudo son castigos por una ofensa contra las tres funciones de la sociedad indoeuropea. La segunda forma de muerte triple está dividida en tres partes distintas; estas muertes distintas son sacrificios a tres dioses distintos de las tres funciones. (es)
