It is worth remembering how the Chichimecas Indians in San Miguel<\/a> They celebrated the Day of the Dead to inspire us to continue carrying out this very important tradition today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Fray Isidro Felix de Espinoza, they were guided by other Franciscan friars in the ceremony and this was the resulting hybrid:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"D\u00eda<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From 1555 onwards, in the first chapels, they gathered with their offerings with products from their gardens such as cooked corn, sour-tasting tamales with pieces of cornstalk to sweeten them, pumpkins, honey, corn atole and pulque in clay pots with the name of the deceased painted on them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gathered on November 1st, they would place themselves at the altar and light a large bonfire to serve as a guide for the deceased to the place where they could satisfy their hunger and thirst. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then they would go out to let the souls enjoy the great feast and the living had a party that lasted all night and into the evening while the dead enjoyed this great banquet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
