Summary
| Description |
English: As a means of converting indigenous people to Catholicism, monks deliberately sought ways to transform indigenous beliefs and rituals with similarities to Catholic ones into ones that could be included in Catholic practice. The transformation of indigenous dances to indigenous gods into ones expressing Catholic beliefs was one such vehicle. These dance groups have existed continuously since the 16th century to the present day and regularly participate in Catholic fiestas. |
