In this study we analyze the importance of the presence of tunk’ul in the carnival celebrations in Pomuch, Campeche. We describe the ritual and propose an analysis of the ceremonial chant in which this instrument plays a fundamental role. We detail the interrelation between the various spatial, temporal and social components composing this ceremony using ethnological, historical and linguistic sources. We also include the transcription and translation of this ceremonial chant, as well as its recording, which allows us to understand its execution.
