In the first of ten programs, Yetman visits Oaxaca, Mexico, to learn how many Native American groups in pre-Conquest Mexico celebrated one day each year when their deceased ancestors would return to visit them—El Dia de los Muertos. This ancient tradition has become the state of Oaxaca’s most important celebration. (1 of 10) WEB LINK	101	MO	07/22/13	06:00pm	00:26:46	-	×	×	ST
