Descent of 40 yards down wooden ladders to reach the mine?s core, where my mining friends perform the offering to the God of the mine. Mine Porco, Potosi, Bolivia. 28 January 2016. During this part of the ceremony no one but miners can enter the mine, however I was invited after several hours of co-mingling./ Descenso de 40 yardas a traves de escaleras de madera para llegar a la veta donde mis amigos mineros realizariamos la ofrenda al Dios de la mina. Mina Porco, Potosi, Bolivia. Enero 28 de 2016. En esta parte de la ceremonia nadie mas que los mineros pueden ingresar, a mi se me permitio despues de varias horas de convivencia. The customs and beliefs of Andean people are a hybrid of catholic religion and old beliefs. One of its highest expressions is within the Bolivian mining culture that worships the Pacha Mama (Mother Earth), the Celestial Divinity personified in the Catholic God and "El Tio" of the mine (Satan). To the latter, who rules the underworld, they make offerings with sacrifices of llamas inside the mines to ask for protection in the depths of the mountain and abundant mineral.
