"This Mexican tradition combines the beliefs of ancient cultures with those of the Catholic religion.  Mexico has always had its own approach to the concept of death.  On the Day of the Dead, the souls of the ancestors are invited to join in festivities including food and dancing.  Candy skulls are given to loved ones and funny poems about death are shared.  This indigenous festivity dedicated to the dead has already been included by UNESCO since 2008 in the List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity."
