People burn offerings in honor of "Pachamama," or Mother Earth, on La Cumbre, a mountain considered sacred where a statue of Jesus Christ stands on the outskirts of La Paz, Bolivia, Friday, Aug. 2, 2024. According to the Aymara tradition, the Pachamama awakens hungry and thirsty every August after the dry season, and to satiate her, devotees toss offerings including fruit, coca, sweets and dead llama fetuses into a bonfire.
