RJ-Roman Jerome celebrates Day of the Dead

Each year, Mexico celebrates the Day of the Dead - Día de los Muertos. As part of the UNESCO's "Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity" in 2003, the Day of the Dead became red in the Mexican calendar. The Día de los Muertos holiday is dedicated to the memory of the dead and passes in 1 and 2 November. The legend says that in those days the souls of dead relatives visit home. The tradition of celebrating this day dates back to the Maya and Aztecs, brought gifts to the goddess Miktlansiuatl, and craeted a wall with a skull - tsompantli. In the holidays, people build private altars to honor the dead of the skulls made of sugar. Today, the holiday is an occasion to laugh at death.
