I've decided after viewing a few masks in a local store, real ceremonial masks along with fakes that it would be interseting to follow through and discover how these beauties are used in cermony and during festivities.
The mask depicted comes from Zitlala, Guerrero, and is refered to as a Tigre, otherwise known as the jaguar.
They are used to to celebrate the feast of the Holy Cross, on May 3-5th.
