Maya bee Xunaan-Cab

CELEBRATING THE TRADITIONS
In Xel-Há we want to transmit to new generations the importance and preservation of traditions as the Melipona beekeeping. That is why during the months of June and December of each year, Xel-Há performs the ceremony of the honey bee Melipona. This tradition dates from the pre-Hispanic times, and is conducted by a Mayan priest. Xel-Há promotes the rescue of an ancient tradition of the Yucatan Peninsula that has been weakened, and the Melipona bee is considered endangered.
