Mexican Traditions
 This is a Christian custom, and history tells of the three Kings Magos who left to go adore the Baby Jesus. And as Marco Polo recounts in his book The Million: "the three Kings of the region" went on a trip to adore a born prophet and to take three offerings to him: Gold, Frankincense & Myrrh. If the prophet took gold, he would be a king of land; if he took the incense he was a God; if he took myrrh, he was to be a doctor.
 The celebration consists in reception and entertainment with food,
water and prayers for the souls of the deceased familiars and friends;
the first day for the children and the second for the adults.
