We do not really have a rigid mortuary tradition. However, we often use sahumadores as lamps and ceremonial burners. We also bury fetal camelids (llamas, vicunas, alpacas) under our living spaces. We do so to ensure the health and wealth-being of those who live in the residencies. Above all, we all desire to keep deceased ancestors near living spaces. We venerate our ancestors, and we value group identities.
