Ancestor Veneration

The practice of honoring deceased family members through rituals, offerings, and remembrance, based on the belief that ancestors continue to influence the lives of the living. Ancestor veneration is central to the Mexican Day of the Dead, Japanese Obon, Chinese Qingming Festival, and Korean Chuseok. Altars, incense, food offerings, and grave visits are common elements across these traditions.
