Three Kings Day In Mexico
A group of people are riding on horseback, accompanying figures of the Three Wise Men--Melchior, Gaspar, and Balthasar--in the Pueblo de los Reyes Culhuacan in the Iztapalapa mayor's office in Mexico City. They are touring several streets as part of the festivities for the Day of Kings in Mexico. According to belief, the Gospel of Saint Matthew mentions that some ''wise men'' from the East were guided by a star to worship the newborn king of the Jews. The names Melchior, Gaspar, and Balthazar first appeared in a 6th-century mosaic in the Basilica of Saint Apollinaris the New in Ravenna, Italy. (Photo by Gerardo Vieyra/NurPhoto)
