postscriptforfinales: A beautiful skull at the Dia de los Natitas festival. I learned about this tradition the other week in class and I loved everything about it! The skulls are kept in the house and are given cigarettes, food, coca leaves, and other offerings. Some individuals believe that you can ask the skulls for favors.
