| Summary: | Within the intangible heritage, expressions of popular religiosity have a leading role in the reconstruction of the rituals that coexist with the communities assets. In particular, at the North of the State of Morelos, the religious expressions are settled throug the liturgical year. However, the Paschal cycle stands out as one of the most significant periods due to the establishment of diverse temporal sanctuaries where people worship Christ. Specifically in Totolapan, the rituals include pilgrimages, dances, food, make pledges, among others, in a landscape that characterizes the Morelos region. To analyze these issues, from a perspective of ethnographic and historical, it aims to highlight rituals related to the principle of exchange and reciprocity, which reproduce the veneration of religious images and the cultural elements of the communities. |
