  • HERMOSO CARAJO!

  • @carlaenholanda thank you ,, Ananañooooooooo Manichu Warmicha

  • ¡HERMOSA Danza ANDINA!... al pie del SALKANTAY.

    Veo que es un Baile Homenaje a la PACHAMAMA.

    Simbolizan el acto de la SIEMBRA y trabajo de la TIERRA. Los Hombres llevan su instrumento de Labranza (¿cómo le llaman en Quechua?)

    Instrumentación precolombina (no hay cuerdas). Quenas, Tamboras y Fotutos (nombre CHIBCHA Andino para los Caracoles que CONVOCAN).

    Más autóctono... ¡Imposible!.

    PCUAOA ZAJANA (HERMOSA DANZA).

    Lengua CHIBCHA NorteANDINA.

  • thanks you @Venceremos1960

    Sara Hanque dance is for planting corn, Sara is the corn mother sister of the Pachamama. The men carry the Chakietacklia traditional Andean digging tool. the large conch Shell played as a horn is called Puputo

  • La siembra era una ocasion de fiesta. En Puno los ayllus estaban funcionando aun cuando yo era nina. Agradesco el haber podido estar en algunas siembras. Lastima que no se respete ni aprecie la cultura nativa, los mestizos con nuestro pensamiento europeo pensamos que mejoramos con innovaciones novedosas.

    Ojala que no pase eso en Cuzco
