Oruro, situated at an altitude of 3,700 meters, in the mountains of western Bolivia, was a major center of pre-Columbian ceremonies before becoming an important mining area in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The city was refounded by the Spanish in 1606 and remained a sacred site for the Uru people, who came from far to perform their rituals, especially the great feast of Ito. The Spanish banned these ceremonies in the seventeenth century, but they continued under the guise of Christian liturgy: the Andean gods were concealed behind Christian icons, becoming saints. The Ito festival was transformed into Christian ritual: La Candelaria (February 2nd), and the traditional "lama lama" or diablada became the main dance of Oruro.
