In Anglo-Saxon society, it was known that there was no life after death. Cremation (burning of one's body into ashes) was used. Beowulf was cremated and his ashes were built into the walls of the tower that was his last request when he died. He wanted the tower to be built so men would know who he was. It's traditional in Anglo-Saxon epics for the hero to be famous and want his fame to outlive him.
