Sacralidad, tormento y rescate: la vida social de la chicha muisca
Sacredness, torment and rescue: the social life of the muisca chicha
Abstract (en)
From the theoretical formulations of Appadurai and based on secondary historical sources and ethnographic data collected between muiscas communities for over seven years, this article examines the chicha (or fapqua, a muisca ritual drink) as a social object with a life on its own, whose culture and moral meanings are related to the historical contexts in which this drink is framed. Therefore, the chicha went from its original sacred meaning to be demonized, and then to regain back its sacredness
