A peculiar dance dating back before Columbus arrived called Pax is performed on September 7th every year.  It is solely a women's celebration. The fascinating part about it is that the song they sing while they dance is in Mam although they speak Cakchiquel.  They don't know what they sing, because they learn it by ear at an early age.
