indigenous Aztec rituals with Catholicism where the tradition is originated.
Dia de los Muertos honors the dead as natural part of the human essence. The Day of the Dead celebrates the lives of the deceased with food, drink, and activities the dead enjoyed in life. The dead are part of the community celebration and awakened from their eternal sleep to share the festival with their loved ones.
