Overview

The four Gospels and the Acts of Apostles do not say anything about the circumstances of the death of Mary, and in general, her life after Pentecost. Due to the complete lack of historical evidence, the actual circumstances of the death of Mary remain totally obscure.

Christian tradition filled the gap, relating how the Twelve apostles were miraculously assembled to be present at the moment of her death.

Since the 4th-6th century, the death of Mary began to be associated with the belief in her miraculous assumption and coronation in Heaven. In the Roman Catholic church, such a belief was dogmatically defined on November 1, 1950 by Pope Pius XII.
