description: This fourth book of the series focuses on this ancient tradition in the states of Puebla, Tlaxcala, San Luis Potosi and Hidalgo. The book has more than 135 color photographs illustrating the written description of each event. The photographs show the buying of the objects in the tianguis (markets), the preparation of the special dishes to be placed in the ofrenda (offering), and the ritual of building the altar, along with the vigils at the cemeteries. These photographs create a vivid testimony of how strong the influence is of this pre-Hispanic tradition in the beliefs and lives of the people.
