Peru’s Quechua Indians: Culture and family traditions of the Inca descendants (Andes, Cusco Region)

- Опубликовано: 21 окт 2019
- Traditional knowledge and ritual practices are part of the cultural heritage of the communities surrounding the Qeswachaka Bridge in Peru. Their close relationship with the Pachamama (mother nature) has allowed them to survive in one of the most inhospitable places on the planet: the heart of the Peruvian Andes at 4000 meters above sea level.

Our protagonist, Victorian, is a Chakaruwak or "bridge maker", he lives with his family in the paramo. His wife is in charge of the preparation of the food and the home. His son, Vidal, studies in Lima and debates between the comforts of the city or the beauty of the traditional. This is an increasingly popular debate among the new generations that is raising the alarm of the elderly: they fear the loss of their customs and the oblivion of their people.
Indigenous Peruvians cultures were developed here for thousands of years before the arrival of Spaniards, their history, the history of the Quechua people, begins many years before the Inca civilization rose to power. Today, the Quechua people are not a single ethnic group, but rather several indigenous groups scattered throughout South America.

I cannot be more proud of my quechua origins... My parents didnt teach me their language. Cause we had to live in the city, we had to use more Spanish. Eventually i could learn quechua... And i totally relate to the language of my ancestors. I love my quechua culture for real.
Same dude
We are city Indians. But we'll learn if try too
Same to me , now iam learning the beautifull Quechua, the languaje of my parents and my ancestors.🌻
@@vilmasarmiento7697 Where are you learning? I grew up in Lima and was moved to the belly of the beast and it is so hard to feel connected 🌹 thanks for any advice from you or Hugo!

I am.not gonna lie. Peruvians are such a cool ass people like for real. Down to earth funny and cool people you can trust and confide yourself into. I have always loved my Peruvian friends
awe
These people are Andeans. There is a difference between a Quechua Andean and a peruvian.
Peru is an alien iberian creation, peruvians are the source why Andeans were casted to live in these degraded conditions.
There have been countless Andean uprisings, rebellions and wars against the invasive peruvian state.
Fr
I am from the south coast of Peru but my parents used to send me to the Andes mountains to visit my grand parents in vacation when I was a kid , mostly of my relatives speak Quechua in the Andes and I didn't know nothing but they were always treating me with care, love and wisdom to feel like home despite of the differences there is live between the coast, the Andes and the Amazon, I don't have words to describe how the Quechua world is so much different in all aspect with regular life, there is a connection of strong respect to nature, to the community and to be fear with everyone, to live in the Andes is an strong lesson to regenarate yourself with the basic and working hard everyday.
Please🇵🇪❤️reconnect. Those traditions and languages is what makes peru special
I Love how people are working hard to preserve their cultural identity especially when I have no way of knowing where my ancestry began . I envy them💜
There are tons of genetic tests you can find. "Somos" for native American anscestry for example.
CRIgenetics has been The most accurate for our family to go back 50 generations.
hi army!!!💜💙
I did not expect an ancient Quechua Chaman smoking modern cigarettes, I thought they will smoke their own tobacco pipe rather than smoking poison from caucasian Hispano invaders.
@@tamirthedirector Finding someone's approximate genetic history won't bring back their long lost cultural and ethnic Identity.
Beautiful me Peru 🇵🇪 I am proud to be Peruvian
First, they are Native-Peruvian, unlike MESTIZO-peruvians.
@@mixtecjaguar9824 thank you
@@mixtecjaguar9824 Is there outward racism there in Peru as to who is what and what mixture people are? Who is full blood versus mixed? Without dna tests, many people really don’t know exactly what they are!
@@occipitalneuralgia2339 true. Am Peruvian on my mothers side and Navajo on fathers side. Native whatever and proud of my mixed heritage.
@@mixtecjaguar9824 I'm a Brazilian with complex Slavic descent and I'm not proud of being from the country
I learned Quechua just by listening my mother and grandmother speak.
You can send your knowledge to your descendants! Best regards from Tatarstan!
Please🇵🇪❤️Teach others from yoir region and kids if you have any. Your language and traditions is what peru special
My mom is from Andean origins. And I’m proud to cary that with me too. Im still working out where we originally started. But I have way more connection with the land then before. I hope I can visit and spend some time with the natives.
You're from the US, no?
Peruvian people so beauthiful 🤗🤗🤗
Much love from Armenia 🇦🇲🧡🇵🇪
Thank you very much, our love to you as well. I knew Armenian person in the States, a very friendly and kind person.
🇦🇲🧡🇵🇪
I agreed. They are so beautiful
Half Ecuadorian here. Born and raised in the US. I'm reconnecting with my indigenous side. Nice to see videos like this so I can learn more.
Peru, Ecuador and Bolivia are the same. The Incas do not exist anymore. We are indigenous communities that existed during the Inca times.
5:45 when his daughter gave him the potato.. that made my night. Matyöx! 💚✌🏾🤩 long live the Quechua and Maya families
I'm proud, because I learned that extraordinary language.... My mom taught me when I was younger, in my childhood everyone of my friends and my class mates didn't know to speak that language, Just my mom taught me and it helped me a lot in so many ways because I went to live to Ireland and I learned English quickly and I also learned Portuguese, after that i moved to Spain and i learnd Catalan, although im learning french, and in the future I will learn German, Quechua has helped me a lot in specially in the phonetic because that language has different sounds with the similar sounds of many languages. Never and ever be ashamed of speaking this wonderful language.
Shoutout to all my Peruvian friends I love yall
Shout out to Peru
Where are you from?
I loved that the video shows the dialogue and natural everyday conversations between the people and the family members, it was so funny and amusing and intriguing to watch that, thank you!
I’m 61% indigenous and the rest European mainly Spaniard. I got this from my mom side mainly. Her mother used to speak Quechua and used to live in the rural areas. She forgotten her language and customs since she had to live in Lima to survive. Sadly, nobody in our family alive speaks it or has maintain any customs. Finding any classes is extremely difficult unless I move to Peru (I’m American). I’m bummed because I will never feel close to the 61% of myself in this life.
Maybe going there for a month-two per year ?
Not All important Andean rituals require any kind of animal/mammal sacrifice. Sometimes offering/sacrificing food enough. Otherwise, great footage on humble rural life.
The best sacrifice is the spirit, mind and body of oneself.
@@bvillafuerte765 honestly who cares
I'm apache and purepecha from mexico we purepecha are inkas as well we come from the y'all 💯🦅👩🏾🌎
How is it like juggling both languages and cultures?
Hi brother, that is true, many Andean colonies were established in North America. Purepechas are our brothers of Andean origin.
My great grandfather I believe was the last in my family to speak Quechua. I know a few words but wish I could have learned more. I'm proud of my Peruvian heritage. We have the best food NGL! LOL 😆
You can still learn stop making excuses
You must save your ancestors cultural treasure. The language is one of it.
Thats my peruvian 94 yr old great grand dad. Everything hurts everything is wrong everything works.
increible
Hey
Proud to be both Quechua and Inca descent ❤️🇵🇪❤️
im trying to learn quechua but ithink learning from a native would be better. how do i say basic phrases like, hello, bye, please and thank you? i dont mind if you dont want to reply but it would help

@@user-ll9hb3sd8h both Peru and Bolivia, they're sister countries
@@user-ll9hb3sd8h you are aware that Bolivia was called Upper Peru not too long ago . Bolivia has many Incan structures
@@user-ll9hb3sd8h the Roman Empire spans much of Europe? The city of Rome is in modern day Italy. The Incan empire spanned from northern Chile, through Peru, Ecuador and Bolivia. The city of Cusco is in modern day Peru. I’m confused what what you don’t get. Modern borders don’t mean anything.

Oh boy my dream is to visit Peru and spend few months with the locals, natives. So much love and respect with the ancient tribes
They're people, not props. 🤦🏻♂️

4:50 sooo cute little girl 😊😊
Respect the native
Im amazed by the indigenous people of America traditions. Ive been reading about my ancestors traditions in ancient Greece and there are so many things in common. The respect in mother nature is one thing all humans must do again or we will all be wiped out
I really can’t stand the language of the narrator, living here is a life of abundance not bleakness. Please speak of our people with the dignity they have, they know more of life than any colonizer ever could
I dream of relocating here in rural Peru or western Bolivia from the Midwest, USA. I am doing a lot of research to volunteer in this region and learn the language. I agree that there is great strength, knowledge and abundance here. It is a beautiful and honorable land of culture, and people in spite of the destructive environmental colonization impacts from 500 years ago. Thank you for expressing the truth. So frustrated with western ideologies looking down on agrarian Indigenous cultures. Having living in two of the very largest US cities, I think there is absolutely little “comfort” in them. These Quechua are living the most honorable lives in a modern world gone mad.
yeah he sounds so patronizing
RESPECT
i am truly sorry if you are offended by the language. This is all fascinating to me.
I learned a lot from this and respect this culture as a result of this program and want to learn more.
I completely understand your position, however I found this to be sensitive, educational and interesting.
respect
@@mjolnirplissken7032 it's the approach. He treated them like a museum he didn't try to get to know them on a personal level. They're humans, they are alive, they are not a textbook historical figure. At least get to know who they are. You'd get so much more out of it. Look at a documentary of historical figures vs a documentaty of someone alive today. They are very different. They didn't do a good job and we learned very little to be honest. Even the title is stupid. We're not indians we're natives.
Thank you for the video
My father is 90 years old, he works too and walk very weel, he is andean and quechua like me in this case language quecha varies for region (departamento) we are quechua from Ancash this is fusion with culli.
Love you peruvians i have strange interest on peru and its culture love from india
They seem so dismissive of the granma...she looks so sad she's in pain...yet they ignore her...he straight asked her to go get the sheep...he eating to many coca leaves...poor granna
Yes I agree but she seems to be very difficult as well and she threw major shade at her daugter in law lol
Yes, no one likes to feel like a burden but she is at an age where elderly people should not work and all of us will go through this stage of advanced age where we insist to our sons we can still work and be useful.
It's devastating about her foot but there are not even medical facilities to treat infants (high infant mortality rate), let alone the elderly. It's their reality but they do care about her, they work for her, feed her, dress her, clean her.
When there is nothing to be done, no money, medicine, no doctor the only remedy is to bear the pain...and chew coca leaves.
I miss my grandma.
Awesome civilization
As an Incan descendant boy do i feel grateful for everything i have and i cant wait until im in a comfortable enough position to help/rejoin my ppls and be at least 25%-50% sustainable👌🏼 city life has drained my soul.
Indigenous is the right term for Quechua peoples and Indigenous peoples in general
Thank you!
beautiful shoot my friend, I hope I can visit there, greetings from Indonesia,... thx for sharing

Me encantaría poder conocer Perú
we aren't indians when will you stop doing this? Either call us by our proper indigenous names or just indigeous people. Not indians since we know we were called that by mistake.
Fr, it’s really upsetting.
There also exists white, asian and black peruvians but they live mainly in the coast, un citys like Lima, Piura or Arequipa. A lot of people think that peruvians are only indigenous people but they are completely wrong.
Wow q genial

These tiny islands of humanity need to be respected and preserved with great care.
Im afraid my country believes strongly in imposing our system and way of thinking onto every living creature we set our eyes on.
There are layers to reality which are now invisible to us, we must have decided long ago that they were less important than efficiency, power and conformity.
Im not romanticizing this culture or hating mine, but I do feel a loss for the incredibly vast, ancient and completely unique civilizations we have trampled under our feet without a care or consideration for the wisdom and insight that couldve been available to us were it different.
Peruvians have Pachamama and Maori have Foccapoppa, both mean basically the same thing.
And we Indian Hindus, Buddhists and Jains have Bhoomi, also called Vasundhara, Prithvi, Dhara & Dhariti meaning the same thing - Mother Earth. She is also called Kshama Devi, meaning the One who Forgives.
Both diferentes incas and india
when you're preparing to braid 40 meters of rope out of a 25 pounds of weeds getting spun first only makes good sense. all joking aside it's incredible how fast that man can make rope out of grass. these are lost skills that everyman knew in the past.. modern times are perverting the human condition IMHO
I would have liked to know how the women get those awesome skirts and other clothing in such wonderful colors. There was no reference to trade or travel, so if they are made and dyed by them, how? They have a wonderful aesthetic considering their surroundings.
Weaving from the sheep fur and bugs/plants can be used to make dye.
Yes those are hand woven
There is much info online. Start with Thrum Book Publishers which have many books on South American indigenous textiles and their natural dying methods.

I’m sad for grandmother, she was saying her foot was hurting, yet no one seemed to pay any attention… wonder if she had an ingrown toenail or an infected cut or a twisted ankle…
They seem to be mean to the old lady they should be caring for. Total disregard and insults she gets all day from her as though she's in their way and death is her only way out. Feel sorry for her. Gets treated like a dog
@@trevorbyron9448 This is untrue, a huge exaggerating, they take care of her. They work for her, feed her, dress her, clean her. They never yelled at her nor insulted nor laid a finger on her. No one likes to feel like a burden but she is at an age where elderly people should not work and all of us will go through this stage of advanced age where we insist to our sons we can still work and be useful. It's devastating about her foot but there are not even medical facilities to treat infants (high infant mortality rate), let alone the elderly. It's their reality, just as we have ours filled with comfort and privilege, you are looking at the video through your own lense and not theirs.

My DNA results confirmed I’m 47% Andean!!! I’ve always been asked if I was Indian as in Punjabi Indian however I honestly knew I was not. My family has a lot of Indian but we weren’t sure from how far south. We only considered American Indian but these results have been astounding and exciting to learn more about my roots! It explains why many of my family members look more Peruvian & Indian. We’ve been raised as Mexicans perro like this explains a lot! Our ancestors have traveled far and wise all across the western hemisphere. ❤🎉🎉
Interesting people
Who knows In which language family in the world related of traditional ancient Inca language? And could you give some Inca word examples, for example bread, onion, salt, water etc.?
Its Indigenous/Native not Indians 🙄
❤🙏❤
Is it impossible for trees to grow in those mountains I would like to know. It looks so barren.
The “Indian” in the title mean, Indians from South Est asia Indian?
People need to start talking about Native American Tribes from Central California and Far NorthernCalifornia are coming back with Peru and Bolivian Roots.These Native Groups come from So.America and migrated North.
Is there any option to bring solar panels and wind turbines to this community, perhaps a way to sink a well? It looks dry like parts of Australia… hard to get a true sense of how high it is and how thin the air is there…
That is a great idea. Hope one day it can be implemented. I will propose it to a politic.
High up in the Andes. Anyone know where that mass of really thick rope comes from?

THe process of assimilation (MESTIZAJE) forces native people in Latin America to Hispanicize. This process is cruel, destructive, and more often, irreversible.
literally never saw a latin american complain about mestizaje. It's not forced also, it's a natural process of amalgamation. Unless you are extremely racist and etnocentric which i assume you are.
@@HugsmadeDrugs ha! Blind to the reality in Latin America, I bet you didn't know, blacks can now mark "Afro-Mestizo" in Mexico's census. Like natives, not everyone wishes to be MESTIZO, I guess when your the majority, you're blind to the concerns of the minority.
Scooby dooderino some do it because they have no other choice/ want a better future for their children
You’re correct. A lot of people from rural Peru and the Andes has to assimilate and leave their customs behind and hispanicize to fit into the city of Peru, this happened a lot during the 80s when a terrorist group called ‘sendero’ was around.
Well a simple kinda life never did me no harm
A raisin' me a family and workin' on the farm

They are descendants of "INDRA DEV" hindu god which is worshipped as "VIRACOCHA" in Peru south america
Beware of the character Kari Kari or Kharisiri, who is a character from the Bolivian & Peruvian highlands and valleys. He is known for extracting fat from the body of travelers and local people, using different strategies. This can take the form of an animal during the day, it can imitate the cry of an abandoned crying baby, to attract its victims. This character is also called lik'ichiri or sacamantecas, in Potosí. The term Kharisiri comes from its association with the Aymara word khariña, which refers to the action of cutting meat. In Peru the Kari Kari is called pishtaku or ñak'aq.
That is why the locals entrust themselves to the land, asking for its protection. Peru and Bolivia have unimaginable mythological beings that to date continue to do their thing..

From a Greek book title '' The inka spoke greek '' i send a word list to a Quechua professor in the Andes : Happy new year ! does any of the following make sense ? Thanks in advance ! curas son , china woman , hua son , sapa wise , rima verb, ariy cultivate , harpay take with violence , ichus maybe , kaja burn , puriy I go , putymuy river , titi tit, uras hour , wale better , wannuy to kill , wata year, yaku water , kharasay i engrave , ayra air, naka i slaughter , kamay create , sukuy to suck HIS REPLY Yes. Most of them make sense. China is female. Woman is warmi; son is qhary wawa; to talk- rimay; to buen _canay; ; I go- Nocca rini ; to walk- puriy. Maybe is Putumayu river .tit - ñuñu; uras is derived from Spanish horas- hours; To kill- huañchiy; huañuy is the noun for deth.; wata =year is correct; yacu or yaku is correct. air is wayra. to slauter- nak'ay; Kamay or camay is to order. Cheers!!!
