  • One of the meanings (monetary compensation to the kins for the killing of a person in order to prevent a feud) has a synonym : "wergild" (or weregild or wergeld), which is in various English language dictionaries, and "diya" (or diyya) in muslim law.

    EDIT : trivet has put together a list for all those other terms: the price of a life
