When the Earth is the Hungriest | M.P. Pellicer

Pachamama Raymi is celebrated on August 1, every year. This festival dates to pre-Hispanic times like the Mayan new year. She is an ancient female deity worshiped by the Mesoamericans and their descendants, even though originally the sun was the main god of the Incas.

Pachamama is made from the Quechua word "pacha" which means space, and mama for mother.

For the Aymara and the Quechua who have lived in northwestern Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru for hundreds of years the date signifies the beginning of the month when the Earth rests. This is the coldest season of the year in the southern hemisphere. This is when the earth is the hungriest.

In 2021, a mummified man was found in Peru, then a year later the remains of 20 sacrificed victims were discovered around him.

Cajamarquilla is an ancient city on the outskirts of Lima, Peru. The site is considered a pre-Hispanic mud city, which could have housed between 10,000 and 20,000 people in an area of 413 acres. It is here that the mummy of a man, bound in a fetal position was found inside a tomb. His age is estimated to be either in his 20s or 30s. He was dubbed "Chabelo".
