Comments on: The Festival of the Virgin of Urkupiña http://sicmagazine.org/virgin/ Mon, 06 Sep 2010 19:07:53 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.2 By: Delpas http://sicmagazine.org/virgin/#comment-5032 Delpas Mon, 28 Jun 2010 12:25:56 +0000 http://sicmagazine.org/virgin/#comment-5032 Hello, I'm a French journalist working on a web doc on Chagas disease in Bolivia. As Urkupiña's rock-breaking rite is a possible source of dissemination of the vector (a bug called vinchuca), I need a photo of this rite. Do you give me the right to use it, with appropriate credit? If yes, write me back to give me the exact credits you want to figure on the doc. Thanks in advance. Clara Delpas Hello, I’m a French journalist working on a web doc on Chagas disease in Bolivia.

Look at the facial proportions, especially between the center and right-side. Makes it all a bit stranger... I’m convinced that the ladies in the intro image are all sisters.
