Abstract
The figure of Saint James Apostle has enjoyed of emblematic characteristics so much in Peninsular reconquest as in the New World conquest. And the worship to him dedicared, includes ritual elements with an important simbolic charge. Still nowadays, he is the most venerated saint in Mexico, having been transformed the festive rituals to him dedicated by spaniards into others that can be so enigmatic as the Jalisco's tastoanes . In order to give an interpretation of them, I'll apply an historie-formal analysis to the transformations system established by ritual confrontations between Saint James and his different antagonists, an other, structuraly analogous, Holy Week and carnival fights.
