The Catrin is a famous and popular Mexican character, it is either a woman or a man in the shape of a skeleton. It is specially famous during 'el Dia de muertos' or day of the dead.
Among Pre-hispanic people it was common to save skulls to exhibit them during rituals that symbolised death and rebirth.
Dead's Day was celebrated the ninth month of the Mexica Solar Calendar, near August, and lasted the whole month. The celebration was presided by the Goddess Mictecacíhuatl, known as "Lady Death" ('La Catrina' nowadays). The celebration was for the deceased.
Beliefs about death have been raised in Mexican culture. These have developed a series of rituals and traditions whether to venerate, honor, frighten and even mock it.
