Xinacates Carnival Celebration In Puebla, Mexico
In San Nicolas de los Ranchos, Mexico, on March 3, 2024, a young person with their body painted silver is wearing a mask and participating in the pre-Hispanic celebration 'The Carnival of the Xinacates.' This festivity occurs in the municipality located on the slopes of the Popocatepetl volcano, in the state of Puebla. As part of the tradition, the Xinacates, or painted people, are taking to the streets to paint tourists. During these celebrations, a tribute is being paid to the Teoton volcano so that the inhabitants may have a good harvest season. (Photo by Essene Hernandez/Eyepix Group) (Photo by Eyepix/NurPhoto)
