The quintanarroense folklore, little well-known, is influenced by three areas in which their vicinities or their internal conformation, give to characteristics differentials him. In the North zone, the influence of the state of Yucatan is let feel in music, dances (jarana), festividades (vaquerías)... In the zone center, the Mayan community with his conserved traditions, it is the purest representation of the Mayan folklore and oldest through his music the "Mayan Pax", of his articles to dress, their dances and songs of the religious ritual.

The South zone, of recent population, is dominated with the musical aspect by the Bruckdown that brought of Belize first settlers of Chetumal and, that turned Zambay or celebration musical of Zambos, as people denominate to of town and, that came to give in the modern times the Male Zambay that is executed with accordion, guitar and violin, with an own appearance. Nevertheless nowadays, the Reggae and the Calypso, rates of the Caribbean, are pleased.

Quintana Roo, as all town has culture, which shows as social answer before the challenge to continue existing and presents it through its folklore. These customs, are expressed within their peculiar characteristics in celebrations which they synthesize the feelings of the pain and the joy Creole and racially mixed the towns, that sing and dance by any social event, popular or religious, where execute dances and dances, that show the daily task of the different social groups, like the hall dances, sones and jaranas.

With these considerations, we wished solely to show restlessness that have arisen by desire to rescue and to construct our identity, that allows us to have characteristics unmistakable by regions that next we presented/displayed with more detail:

Procesión.-- It is a solemn stroll of religious character, accompanied with song and music; this one is made every year traditionally. In her it is sung "praised", hymn to Christ King, and when finishing they leave caught a candle, causing therefore a spectacle worthy to see themselves.

Dance of the pig head. - This dance, at the pre-Hispanic time, comprised of one of the dedicated offerings to the Gods. At the present time the same essence is executed in honor to santo patrono of the place, conserving, but with greater religious attachment.

The pasacalle.- - It is a slow dance of three times to the popular march of the alive compass, that executed the high and accommodated social class of half of the century. It is characterized to take an extremely elegant cadence where the step valseado with the variant of a step crossed flexionado alternate closings predominates without the composure is lost.

The calabaceado one. - It is a dance of hall eight times to the popular march of alive compass that executed the high and accommodated social class of half of the century.

Fandango.- - It is a glad dance very common in Spain and is formed by several sones that dance themselves combined with jarana passages. In our peninsula the jaranas are the danceable sort that predominates in the three states, although in each one they are different by its form to execute it.

Jarana Quintanarroense. - They are sones which they arise from the fusion of the native thing, religious and profane; in addition to being agile and elegant zapateado, product of that mixture of sonecitos, with the invasion of that great cánova Andalusian, without lacking the accent valseado of jota Aragonese. Despite the jaranas they are those that predominate in the Yucatan Peninsula. In each one of the states that conform it, the jarana is characterized by its form of execution.

Dance of the chicleros.- It is this dance, is the form characteristic of diversion of the chicleros, somewhat huraños robust men who worked in the forest in the calls campings or cattle ranches. The chicleros showed the form characteristic of diversion in where a single woman with them danced. It did not lack some that it wanted to take advantage of or to offend, settling a duel to machete blows that almost always managed to calm. This dance has its mediate antecedent in the Brok Dow that transported to our earth acquires very peculiar characteristics.

Male Sambay.-According to some people it is the loveness of libélula male to the female. According to others, it is a dance of resistance, credible thing by the vigor of his rate and the rapidity of his movements.

Popurri. - As its name indicates it is a set of the dances more characteristic than they arrived until this Mexican region mixes of melodíes and sones that finish with the well-known "degollete".
