#halloween The Day of the Dead has its origin in the indigenous roots of the indigenous cultures of Mesoamerica, according to historians, to merge with Catholic beliefs and give rise to a holiday that continues to evolve with the passage of time. The cult of death was common among pre-Hispanic cultures. When someone died, they were buried wrapped in a backpack and their relatives organized a party to guide them on their journey to Mictlán (place of the dead).
Pre-Hispanic peoples also placed offerings (food they liked, cempasúchil flowers that illuminated their path, among others) in their rituals. For these cultures, death was part of a cycle and the fate of the dead was marked by the person's way of life. It is a day to remember and celebrate the lives of people who are no longer on the physical plane.
